Smokey Robinson, John Fogerty & More to Be Celebrated at American Music Honors


Smokey Robinson, John Fogerty, Emmylou Harris, Tom Morello, and Joe Ely will be honored at the 2025 American Music Honors on April 26.

“This year’s honorees represent a cross-section of American music,” said Robert Santelli, founding executive director of the Bruce Springsteen Archives. While their careers span different genres—Motown, rock, country, and alternative—the honorees all share an undeniable impact on Billboard’s charts and American music history. Smokey Robinson’s work as the frontman of The Miracles helped define the sound of Motown, and he was behind some of its biggest early hits.
