Iconic singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Kate Bush has earned her third career nomination for the prestigious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. She is one of 17 musical acts nominated for the Class of 2022.

She was previously nominated for its Classes of 2018 and 2021 respectively. Bush is a true trailblazer and innovator that helped mold the British and international rock music scene into what it is today. She is credited for being a “spellbinding visionary and fey-spirit child,” and rightfully so.

Her radical experimentation with lush soundscapes, literary themes, sampling, and theatricality have inspired countless artists in music.

Bush is known for her inventive use of technology, as well as her unique arrangements, and her visually-striking presentations, which inspired countless artists and bands. She is affectionately known as the “Queen of Art-Pop” and she possesses a four-octave vocal range.

Thanks to Kate Bush, she was able to influence such artists as Björk, Tori Amos, Solange, Johnny Rotten, Big Boi, and St. Vincent.

At 19 years old, her debut single “Wuthering Heights” peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard charts in the United Kingdom and it stayed there for four weeks. With this milestone, she became the first female solo recording artist to earn a No. 1 single in Great Britain for a single that she wrote entirely by herself. Equally remarkable was the commercial success of “This Woman’s Work.”

In 2013, Queen Elizabeth II honored her with a Commander of the British Empire (CBE) award for her services to the music business.
