SAN DIEGO — Ann and Nancy Wilson, whose lifelong passion for music took root when they were growing up in San Diego County, are among the eight artists who will receive the Recording Academy’s 2023 Lifetime Achievement Awards.

They will be in illustrious company when they receive their Grammy Lifetime Achievement Awards at an invitation-only Special Merit Awards ceremony in Los Angeles at the Wilshire Ebell Theatre.
This year’s other Lifetime Achievement Awards honorees include The Supremes, Bobby McFerrin, Nirvana, blues pioneer Ma Rainey, Chic band co-founder and noted producer and songwriter Nile Rodgers, and rapper Slick Rick. The honorees were announced Thursday morning.
