Her induction inspired her to make her own rock album, <a href="https://dollyparton.com/album/rockstar">Rockstar</a>. She collaborated with a "who's who" list of rock artists to fill up a 30-track project.</p><h2>Where to Watch the 2024 Rock &amp; Roll Hall of Fame Ceremony</h2><p>This year's ceremony is set for Saturday, Oct. 19, at the Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse in Cleveland, Ohio. The ceremony will stream live on Disney+ and will be available on Hulu the following day. An induction ceremony special will air on ABC at a later date.</p><h2>15 Country Artists Who Deserve to Be in the Rock &amp; Roll Hall of Fame</h2><p>With Dolly Parton's 2022 induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame — and, even more recently, Willie Nelson's nomination for the 2023 class — it's clearer than ever that country artists have a place in the Cleveland-based institution's hallowed halls. But the Rock &amp; Roll Hall of Fame has always shown love to country performers, to a certain extent: Johnny Cash, Chet Akins, Brenda Lee, the Everly Brothers and Hank Williams are all past inductees.</p><p>Based on the criteria the Hall has set forth, that nominees should be acts who have had "a profound impact on youth culture," there are still many more country artists who deserve their spot in the Hall.
