Songwriters Hall of Fame Announces Class of 2024: R.E.M., Timbaland, Steely Dan, More
The Songwriters Hall of Fame has unveiled its 2024 inductees: R.E.M., Steely Dan, hip-hop and R&B legend Timbaland and more.
The Songwriters Hall of Fame has unveiled its 2024 inductees: R.E.M., Steely Dan, hip-hop and R&B legend Timbaland (hits for Missy Elliott, Justin Timberlake, Aaliyah and many more), and songwriters Hillary Lindsey (“Jesus Take The Wheel,” “Girl Crush,” “Million Reasons”), and Dean Pitchford (“Footloose,” “Fame,” “Let’s Hear It for the Boy”). The induction ceremony is the music industry’s best-kept secret — an invite-only, insider combination of a superstar awards show and a family reunion for the tight-knit songwriting and music-publishing community that is in its 53rd year and has never been televised or livestreamed. Last year, Songwriters Hall of Fame ceremony saw memorable performances from ELO’s Jeff Lynne, Post Malone, Gloria Estefan, Keith Sweat (honoring Teddy Riley) Heather Headley (honoring Tim Rice) and more, with songwriter Liz Rose inducted by this year’s inductee Hillary Lindsey with Lori McKenna.
