The 2023 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame nominees include the Spinners and Jack White's the White Stripes.

Between the lines: If enshrined, they would become the 21st and 22nd Detroit artists in the hall, according to the Free Press.

  • Other nominees include Kate Bush, Sheryl Crow, Iron Maiden, Cyndi Lauper, George Michael, Willie Nelson and A Tribe Called Quest.
  • Missy Elliot joins the White Stripes as this year's only first-time nominees.

What's next: An international voting body of 1,000 artists, historians and "members of the music industry" will select the inductees, the rock hall said in a news release last week.
