The eight artists chosen as the 2024 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees were just announced!

The news was revealed during the latest episode of American Idol with host Ryan Seacrest and judge Lionel Richie (a 2022 inductee into the Hall of Fame) given the honors of announcing the lineup.

To be eligible, an individual artist or band must have released its first commercial recording at least 25 years prior to the year of nomination. 4 out of the 8 Inductees in the Performer category were on the ballot for the first time.

The honorees will officially be inducted into the Hall of Fame on Saturday, October 19 at the Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse in Cleveland, Ohio. The ceremony will stream live on Disney+ with a special airing on ABC at a later date.

15 artists were nominated for the eight inductee slots, so seven of them unfortunately didn’t make the cut.

Dave Matthews Band is back!

The band just announced that they will release their 10th studio album, Walk Around the Moon, on May 19 – their first since 2018′s Come Tomorrow.

The album consists of 12 original songs recorded with producer Rob Evans, including lead single “Madman’s Eyes,” released Tuesday (January 24).

The announcement coincides with the launch of a U.S. summer tour.

Longtime collaborator John Alagia is the executive producer of the album, which “took shape during the pandemic and is as much a reflection on the current times as it is an urge to find common ground.”

A presale for DMB Warehouse Fan Association members is underway now at warehouse.davematthewsband.com. Citi cardmembers will have access to presale tickets on Tuesday, February 14, at 10 AM local time at citientertainment.com.

Tickets will go on sale to the general public on February 17 at 10 am local time. For ticket info, head to davematthewsband.com.

The list of the Top 30 highest-grossing concert tours of the year has been released!

Pollstar has dropped the touring data for the year and all of the concerts this year grossed $6.28 billion collectively, which is a new record.

One of the drivers in increasing tour revenue was the move from arena tours to stadium tours in 2022, with artists from all genres playing the biggest venues in the country.

Shockingly and sadly, only two women are in the Top 30 and you’re probably going to be surprised by some of the names on this list.

The data is just for North American shows instead of worldwide shows. We have some interesting info, including the average gross per show for each tour and the amount of tickets each artist sold.
