Vince Gill, Ray Stevens and Marty Stuart are among the country artists and behind-the-scenes movers and shakers who will be inducted into the Musicians Hall of Fame in 2022.
The Musicians Hall of Fame in Nashville revealed its 2022 inductees on Friday (Oct. 28). Gill and Stevens will be inducted as solo artists along with “American Pie” hitmaker Don McLean, while Stuart is set for induction alongside his Fabulous Superlatives, who include Chris Scruggs, Harry Stinson, Kenny Vaughan and Mick Conley.

In non-performing categories, Jim Guercio is set to receive the Producer Award, while George Massenburg is set for recognition with the Engineer Award.
2022’s formal induction ceremony will take place on Tuesday, Nov. 22, at the Nashville Municipal Auditorium a 7PM CT. It’s the Hall’s first induction ceremony since 2019.
