Sombr, Brandi Carlile and Billy Corgan are among those set to present and/or perform at the 2026 Songwriters Hall of Fame Induction & Awards Gala slated for Thursday (June 11) at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York City. The SHOF reports that the event is sold out.
The roster of presenters and performers includes three people who have already been inducted into the SHOF — Nile Rodgers (2016), Dallas Austin (2019) and Steve Miller (2022) — as well as such likely future inductees as Corgan of the Smashing Pumpkins and Carlile. Rodgers is also the SHOF chairman.
