After 4 nomination rounds for the Rock & Roll Corridor of Fame, Kate Bush has been inducted into the corridor as a part of the category of 2023. Following the announcement this morning (Might 3), Bush has shared a press release on her web site reflecting on the consideration. “I’ve to confess I’m utterly shocked on the information of being inducted into the Corridor of Fame!” she wrote. “It’s one thing I simply by no means thought would occur.” Bush added: “Thanks a lot to everybody who voted for me. It means an amazing deal that you’d consider me. It’s such an enormous honour. Now as a part of the initiation ceremony I get to seek out out concerning the secret handshake… there’s one, proper?”
Bush joins Rage Towards the Machine, Missy Elliott, Sheryl Crow, George Michael, Willie Nelson, and the Spinners within the Rock Corridor’s class of 2023. The official induction ceremony will happen on Friday, November 3, 2023, on the Barclays Heart in Brooklyn, New York.
Earlier at this time, Rage Towards the Machine shared their very own assertion thanking the Rock Corridor for the accolade. In addition they detailed numerous political actions they’ve taken as a band over the previous three many years, writing: “It’s a shocking trajectory for us to be welcomed into the Rock and Roll Corridor of Fame.”
The famously reclusive Bush has been extra outspoken in recent times, discussing her gratitude for Stranger Issues licensing “Working Up That Hill,” eulogizing Robbie Coltrane, and reflecting on the Queen’s loss of life final winter.
