After leaving Mercury in 1995, Reeves signed to River North Records and released two more albums. The second album she recorded for River North Records, Day 14, was more pop-oriented and she simply went by Ronna. She recorded a duet "There's Love on the Line" with Sammy Kershaw on her album The More I Learn as well a duet with Peter Cetera, on a cover of ABBA's "SOS", on his album One Clear Voice.[2]
She is perhaps best remembered as a regular on The Statler Brothers Show during the mid-1990s, as well as opening act on many of their tours.
Since 2010, Ronna along with Liz Morin own Showbiz-Ro Music, an Independent Songplugging & Writer Management Service, in Nashville, TN.
