The South Dakota Rock and Roll Music Association (SDRRMA) is proud to announce the 2023 inductees for the South Dakota Rock & Rollers Hall of Fame. These individuals and groups have made a significant impact on the history of rock and roll in South Dakota and are set to be honored at the 14th annual induction ceremony to be held on Saturday, September 30th.
