Bill Summary

AN ACT TO AMEND THE LIST OF MUSICIANS HONORED ON ARKANSAS MUSIC APPRECIATION DAY; AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES.

AI Summary

This bill amends Arkansas Code § 1-5-117(a) to expand the list of musicians honored on Arkansas Music Appreciation Day by adding five new musicians: J.R. Rogers, Frank "Son" Seals, Royal Wade Kimes, Justin Moore, and Albert King. The bill adds these musicians to a nonexclusive list that celebrates Arkansas's musical heritage, bringing the total number of honored musicians to 22. By including these artists, the legislation recognizes their contributions to music and their connections to the state of Arkansas, which could include genres like blues, country, and rock. The bill appears to be a legislative way of formally acknowledging and preserving the musical legacy of these specific artists who have either originated from Arkansas or made significant musical contributions while associated with the state.
