The nominees have been announced for 2023 induction into the prestigious Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Fans are able to vote for their favourite musicians from the list over the coming months, with the inductees to be announced in May, and the ceremony to take place in the autumn with full details yet to be announced.
Fans around the world participate in the Induction selection process through the Fan Vote. From now until 28thApril, fans can vote online every day at vote.rockhall.com or in person at the Museum in Cleveland. The top five artists selected by the public will comprise a “fans’ ballot” that will be tallied along with the other ballots to determine the 2023 Inductees.
Nominee ballots will be sent to an international voting body of more than 1,000 artists, historians, and members of the music industry. An artist’s musical impact and influence on other artists, length and depth of career and body of work as well as innovation and superiority in style and technique are taken into consideration.
To be eligible for nomination, an individual artist or band must have released its first commercial recording at least 25 years prior to the year of nomination.
The artists nominated for 2023 are:
Nominees consist of an intentionally eclectic mix spanning musical genres, capturing the essence of the Hall of Fame – the organisation prides itself on its broadness and underlying message of music of all styles that move and impact audiences. The musicians up for consideration include those we lost too soon, as well as groups who have since disbanded, performed live less frequently, or have evolved over the years. Additionally, some of the 2023 artists have been nominated before, such as Kate Bush, Iron Maiden, Rage Against the Machine, The Spinners, and A Tribe Called Quest.
John Sykes, Chairman of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Foundation expressed his excitement at the lineup for 2023, saying:
“This remarkable list of Nominees reflects the diverse artists and music that the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame honors and celebrates. These artists have created their own sounds that have impacted generations and influenced countless others that have followed in their footsteps.”
Born from the collision of rhythm & blues, country, and gospel, rock & roll is a spirit that is inclusive and ever-changing. The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame celebrates the sound of youth culture and honors the artists whose music connects us all. We share stories of the people, events, and songs that shape our world through digital content, innovative exhibits, live music, engaging programs, and our annual Induction Ceremony. We intentionally foster a diverse, equitable, educational non-profit Museum that encourages and embraces creativity and innovation. As a community leader, we value, empower, and respect all people. Join the millions who love rock & roll as much as you do.
