"The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce is thrilled to honor rock legend Sammy Hagar for his contributions to the world of Rock & Roll music,”  stated Ana Martinez, Producer of the Hollywood Walk of Fame. “From his humble beginnings in Fontana, California to strolling the Hollywood Walk of Fame as a young boy, he has truly come a long way!" added Martinez.

Along his journey, he has set the tone for some of the greatest rock anthems ever written, including "I Can't Drive 55", "Right Now", and "Why Can't This Be Love", and has earned himself the highest respect in the music industry with a Grammy Award and induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
