The new additions to the Hall of Fame
After a survey taken in 2016, I have a list of new artists that would get into the hall of fame for the following year. However, after the death of Tommy Keene, I realized many of these musicians that I want to honor might not be around to enjoy it. We are all not getting any younger, and including recently deceased power pop musicians became a priority. Last year I added Mr. Keene, Will Owsley, John Wicks, and The Records. There is also a lack of authors willing to write about certain artists – and that slows down the entire process. Here are the future additions I plan to add:
- Squeeze
- Van Duren (currently in progress)
- XTC
- Todd Rundgren
- Myracle Brah
- The Merrymakers
- The Bangles
- The Shazam
- Weezer
- Cotton Mather
- The Grip Weeds
- Redd Kross
- Chris Von Sneidern
- The Wondermints (currently in progress)
- Nick Lowe
