“Each year the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony brings together the most influential artists in music today to honor their heroes who have inspired their music and careers,” said John Sykes, chairman of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Foundation, in a statement. “These artists come from around the world to create lifetime musical moments that will live on forever.”

The Hall of Fame is expected to announce additional special guests in the coming weeks. The induction ceremony is set to stream live from the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles via Disney+ on Nov. 8 at 8 p.m. ET, while ABC will air a primetime special of highlights on Jan. 1.
