Nedra Telli Ross, the last surviving member of "The Ronettes," a group that marked the 1960s in America, has passed away at the age of 80.
Medianews.az reports that Ross, one of the founding members of the trio that left a mark on pop music history, had her death confirmed by her family.
Her daughter, Nedra K. Ross, stated in a social media post that her mother passed away at home, surrounded by family.
Born on January 27, 1946, in New York, Ross began her music career in 1959 together with her cousins Ronni Spector and Estelle Bennett. The group gained worldwide fame after collaborating with producer Phil Spector. Their hits such as "Be My Baby," "Baby I Love You," and others were highly successful.
"The Ronettes" were popular not only in the USA but also in Great Britain, sharing the stage with celebrities like "The Rolling Stones" and Eric Clapton, as well as performing in the USA tour of "The Beatles."
After the group disbanded in 1967, the members pursued solo careers. Estelle Bennett passed away in 2009, and Ronni Spector in 2022. With Ross's death, no original members of the group remain alive.
