Jimmy Buffett is set to receive a special award from the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2024. The Hall of Fame is honoring the late pop, rock and sometimes country singer with the Musical Excellence Award.

Buffett died on Sept. 1, 2023, at the age of 76. His cause of death was skin cancer that turned to melanoma. Buffett will receive the special Rock Hall recognition alongside MC5, Dionne Warwick and Norman Whitfield.

Alexis Korner, John Mayall and Big Mama Thornton are slated to receive the Musical Influence Award, while Suzanne de Passe will receive the Ahmet Ertegun Award in 2024.

The special awards were revealed on Sunday night (April 21), when Ryan Seacrest and Rock Hall inductee Lionel Richie revealed the 2024 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees live during a special episode of American Idol. The Top 14 delivered songs from previous Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees as fans voted to determine the Top 12 during the episode.
