SNL's 50th season welcomes ultra-talented artists and bands to the Studio 8H stage, from Jelly Roll to Chappell Roan and Stevie Nicks.

By Christopher Rudolph

Since Saturday Night Live's debut in 1975, the sketch show has not only featured A-list celebrity Hosts, but also a wide-ranging variety of Musical Guests.

How to Watch

Watch Saturday Night Live Saturdays at 11:30/10:30c on NBC and next day on Peacock.  

This season, premiering on September 28 with Host Jean Smart and Musical Guest Jelly Roll, is no exception. The show has announced a mix of returning Musical Guests (and in one case, a previous Host) and some of the biggest new stars in music, including the "Save Me" singer as well as platinum-charting singer-songwriter Chappell Roan. 

Another artist, the legendary Stevie Nicks, will be returning to Saturday Night Live for the first time in 40 years on October 12 with Season 49 Musical Guest Ariana Grande hosting in what's sure to be an incredible episode. 

Below, a frequently-updated roundup of every single Musical Guest from SNL Season 50 — and check out the SNL lineup of Hosts for this fall

Grab your tambourine and get ready to twirl as Bella Donna herself, Stevie Nicks, returns to SNL.

It has been more than 40 years since the singer and Fleetwood Mac frontwoman last enchanted SNL viewers. As Musical Guest on December 10, 1983, she performed "Stand Back" and "Nightbird" from her second solo album, The Wild Heart, and who knows what kind of magical spell she'll cast this time around. Sounds like the perfect time to make a return visit to Stevie Nicks' Fajita Roundup.

We'll also have to see whether musical impression genius Grande tries her hand at Stevie Nicks.
