The ceremony is set for October 16 at Oklahoma’s Civic Center in Muskogee, and they will be inducted as part of its class of 2015. Paul Gregg, Dave Innis and Greg Jennings from Restless Heart are all natives of Oklahoma, which is affectionately known as the “Sooner State.”
Aside from these three aforementioned band members, Restless Heart is also comprised of Larry Stewart and John Dittrich. They will be joined by such artists as Becky Hobbs, Tim DuBois, Scott Hendricks and Smiley Weaver, all of which will be inducted in this year’s forthcoming ceremony.
Greg Jennings shared his excitement for the induction via a press statement, noting that it is an “incredible honor” that he had never imagined, and he is even more humbled with the fact that they will be inducted simultaneously with Scott Hendricks and Tim DuBois, who are some of their greatest inspirations.
