Nile Rodgers Appointed Chairman of the Songwriters Hall of Fame: Exclusive

The Songwriters Hall of Fame is headed for some "Good Times" in its executive branch.

CHIC co-founder and hitmaker Nile Rodgers -- a SHOF inductee in 2016 -- has been unanimously elected by the Board of Directors to serve as the organization's chairman for the next three years, succeeding Philly soul architects Kenneth Gamble and Leon Huff.

In a statement, Rodgers -- currently preparing for the Sept. 14 release of It's About Time, CHIC's first new album in 26 years -- said that, "I am truly honored and beyond humbled to be elected by such an esteemed group as this illustrious board.

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to serve the songwriting community."
