Night Ranger lead vocalist and drummer Kelly Keagy has been selected as the inaugural ambassador for the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum. The new program is designed to engage national and international concert fans with the museum’s work.

“Kelly is the perfect person to be the first ambassador for our work at the museum. We strive to honor the unsung heroes of American recorded music; those who contributed so much to the music that became the soundtrack of our lives,” said Joe Chambers, Founder of the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum. “We are looking forward to working with Kelly, as well as other touring musicians who have dedicated their lives to their passion for music.”
