The inductees were chosen by an international voting body that consists of roughly 1,000 artists including inductees who are still with us today.

For their choice, the voting body took into account the artist’s influence on other musicians, how long their career has lasted, innovation, and superiority in thechnique and style.

In 2019, we saw Def Leppard, Stevie Nicks, Janet Jackson, Radiohead, The Cure, the Zombies, and Roxy music receive the distinction. 

The induction ceremony will be boradcast live by HBO and will take place at the Public Auditorium in Cleveland, Ohio.
