Muddy Award Hall of Fame Inductees
The following individuals, bands, venues and events have been inducted into the Muddy Award Hall of Fame. In order to be inducted, they must win their respective catagory three continuous years.
The Female Vocalist, Male Vocalist and Acoustic Guitar Muddy Awards have been named in honor of specific individuals. In order to have a catagory named for them, they must be the recipient of no less than twelve Muddy Awards in that catagory. It has been the decision of the Board of Directors that only individual catagories will be named, no band, venue, recording or event catagories.
The Lifetime Achievement catagory was named in honor of Paul deLay to note his importance on being one of the key figures in the development of the Portland blues community and his recognition world-wide as a musician.
