NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Hank Williams Jr., Marty Stuart and songwriter Dean Dillon are the newest inductees to the Country Music Hall of Fame.

Announced by the Country Music Association on Wednesday, Williams, who often is referred to as Hank Jr. or the nickname Bocephus, will join his father, country legend Hank Williams Sr., in the Hall of Fame's rotunda.

"Bocephus has been eyeing this one for awhile. It's a bright spot during a difficult year," said Williams in a statement. Williams' 27-year-old daughter Katherine died in a car accident in June.

"I have been making Top 10 records for 56 years," said Williams, 71. "I fell off a mountain and tried to reinvent myself as a truly individual artist and one who stepped out of the shadows of a very famous man... one of the greatest. I've got to thank all those rowdy friends who, year after year, still show up for me. It's an honor to carry on this family tradition. It is much appreciated."
