Rebekah Coronado was born on July 10, 1967, and began using the surname Del Rio when she started singing professionally.

Del Rio appears in a scene in the neo-noir film Mulholland Drive in which she sings in the Club Silencio. After hearing her sing "Llorando" (the Spanish version of Roy Orbison's "Crying") at his home studio on the suggestion of the music agent Brian Loucks, Lynch then invited her to perform in the film, which he called "a happy accident." Del Rio's emotional rendition of the song inspired the creation and development of the scene itself. In his book The Impossible David Lynch, Todd McGowan describes Del Rio's performance with the phrase "the voice as the impossible object." In the nightclub scene, Del Rio is introduced as "La Llorona de Los Ángeles" (Crying Woman of Los Angeles), who belts out the song, only to faint onstage while the song continues playing, revealing that she was lip-synching. Film critic Zina Giannopoulou interprets the song's performance and the (symbolic) death of the singer as a parallel to the relationship between the two female doppelgänger characters, Diane/Betty and Rita/Camilla.

Del Rio had a son, Philip C. DeMars, in 1986. He died in 2009 at the age of 23. According to the Los Angeles Medical Examiner, Del Rio died by suicide at her home on June 23, 2025, at the age of 57. The cause of her death was due to morphine and codeine effects. She had undergone surgery for a brain tumor some years prior, and had been diagnosed with cancer again shortly before she died. Less than two weeks before her death, Del Rio performed live at a Mulholland Drive screening charity event for the Philosophical Research Society in Los Angeles.
