The nominees for the 2019 Rock And Roll Hall of Fame have been revealed.
This year will see several newcomers as well as those who have been previously nominated be put up for the honor. In order to be eligible to enter the hall, artists must have a commercial record released 25 years ago.
The following artists who debuted in 1993 have been nominated:
Devo
Roxy Music
Stevie Nicks
Todd Rundgren
John Prine
Returning artists include:
Radiohead
Rage Against the Machine
Janet Jackson
The Cure
Kraftwerk
MC5
Rufus
Chaka Khan
The Zombies.
Last year, The Cars, Bon Jovi, The Moody Blues, Dire Straits, and Nina Simone were all inducted while Radiohead and others were overlooked.
“As a British band, it’s one of those things that it’s very lovely to be nominated, but we don’t quite culturally understand it,” Ed O’Brien from Radiohead said. “It’s a very American thing. Us Brits are very bad at celebrating ourselves.”
You can vote for the artists you think deserve to be inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame 2019 here.
