LEWES, Del.- The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame will have a new Delmarva tie this fall.
On Sunday evening, the class of 2025 was revealed. Among the inductees is the band Bad Company. Paul Cullen, a local musician and chef, was the band's bassist from 1990 to 1994.

Cullen is not one of the four Bad Company members who will be personally inducted this fall. Still he says it's a well-deserved honor for his former bandmates.
"It’s a long time coming—they sold over 40 million albums," Cullen told CoastTV in an interview after Bad Company's nomination was announced.

Today, Cullen owns The Room at Cedar Grove, where he hosts four to five concerts a week. Proceeds benefit Paul Kares, which helps music and culinary students.
Along with Bad Company, the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame's 2025 class includes Chubby Checker, Cyndi Lauper, Outkast, and the White Stripes, just to name a few. A full list can be found here.  They will be inducted Nov. 8.
