The Long Island Music and Entertainment Hall of Fame Honors Local Artists With The LISA Award Winners’ Playlist

Back when the Long Island Music and Entertainment Hall of Fame was just getting started, we had the idea that we should present awards to Long Island musicians “For Outstanding Contributions to Long Island’s Musical Heritage.” These weren’t intended as full inductions into the Hall, but were instead meant as our public recognition for, perhaps, more local people we thought should be recognized. A few major international artists with strong Long Island cred managed to sneak in there, too. Follow this Spotify Playlist featuring some of our beloved LISA winners like Gene Casey, the Jim Small Band, Jack Licitra, Little Toby Walker, the Kerry Kearny Band, Buddy Merriam and more:
