💐Happy Linda Ronstadt Day! Join KXCI as we celebrate Linda Ronstadt’s 79th Birthday, Tuesday, July 15th. It will be a day of music and words highlighting the recordings, heritage, and legacy of Tucson’s most famous musical daughter, but will encompass much more than a single artist. KXCI started Linda Ronstadt Day in 2019 as an annual radio celebration to honor the musical spirit of the Sonoran desert we call home. 💫

Tune in as KXCI DJs share songs in celebration of Linda’s substantial contributions to a variety of musical genres. We’ll also hear from a wide range of other artists, from ones that impacted Linda’s musical roots to those that have blossomed from the branches of her influence.

Thank you. We asked for your help—and you showed up. ❤️

Thanks to your incredible generosity, KXCI’s Emergency Three-Day Fundraising Campaign was a resounding success. Together, we raised the funds needed to narrow the gap caused by federal budget cuts—and it’s all because of you.

Your support during this campaign ensures that independent, community-powered radio continues to thrive in Southern Arizona. Because of you, KXCI will keep delivering the diverse music, community voices, youth DJs, and meaningful programming that make our station a true reflection of the community we serve.

KXCI has always been powered by people who believe in something more—music discovery, diverse voices, and independent media that serves, celebrates, and reflects our vibrant community. Your belief in KXCI makes all of this possible.

Thank you for your commitment to keeping KXCI community-driven, independent, and alive with music and meaning.

With deep gratitude,
Elva De La Torre
KXCI Executive Director
