The Long Island Music Hall of Fame inducted its 2018 class Thursday night at a ceremony at The Space at Westbury. 

The ceremony honored a diverse array of performers, groups, and music industry leaders that have made significant contributions to Long Island's rich music history.

Among the inductees was alternative rock band Taking Back Sunday. 

Billy Joel was among the presenters at the event. He presented this year's "Long Island - Hired Guns Award" to his longtime guitarist and musical director Tommy Byrnes.
