Lzzy Hale made her debut as the singer of Skid Row over the weekend during a pair of concerts on Friday and Saturday (May 17th and 18th) in Illinois and Iowa.
Hale is filling in on vocals after Skid Row’s previous frontman, Swedish singer Erik Grönwall, stepped away from the group due to health issues.

The band had four gigs on the books — now billed as the “Skid Row x Lzzy Hale” run — when Grönwall announced his exit. The first came on Friday (May 17th) at Walker’s Bluff in Carterville, Illinois, where the Hale-fronted glam metal icons performed a 16-song set.
They kicked things off with one of the heaviest Skid Row tracks in “Slave to the Grind” and proceeded to hit the obligatory hits, a cover (“Psycho Therapy” by the Ramones), and more heavy metal (“Monkey Business”). An encore of “Riot Act...

When Lzzy Hale first met Ashley McBryde, the Halestorm singer presented her with a gift that sartorially summed up the hippie and headbanger sides of the Arkansas native’s personality: a leather jacket with country fringe, heavy metal studs, and a monogram on the lining that read: “Ashley Fucking McBryde.”
“She’s a rock-and-roller at heart, but she also wears that beautiful soul on her sleeve through her voice,” Hale says on a video call from London where the band is nominated at Friday’s Heavy Music Awards. That combination...

When Lzzy Hale and her band, Halestorm, were first nominated for a Grammy in 2013 — earning a Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance nod for their song “Love Bites” — the power singer found herself the only woman in a category full of dudes. (They won.) Not much seemed to have changed by 2019, when Halestorm scored their second Grammy nomination, for Best Rock Performance.
Now, however, Hale is leading a charge for women in heavy music. The group’s latest headlining tour of the U.S. featured a lineup of female-fronted bands, all of them handpicked by Hale,...

Halestorm spell-out their hard-rock mission statement on the new track “The Steeple,” a defiant redemption song that finds the band’s Lzzy Hale emerging from the wilderness of pandemic isolation.
“This is my kingdom / this is my cathedral / this is my castle / these are my people,” she howls. “It’s been a long road outta hell / up to the steeple.” The dramatic high point, though, comes not in the chorus, but after guitarist Joe Hottinger’s intricate, spiderweb solo, when Hale repeats the chorus a cappella.

Halestorm have announced the follow-up to their 2018 album Vicious. The hard-rock band’s fifth studio LP will be released in 2022.
While a specific release date, track list or even title have yet to be revealed, the group debuted the LP’s first single. “Back From the Dead” is a biting but cathartic howler about overcoming all obstacles — even death. “I’m back from the dead alive/hell couldn’t hold me down,” singer-guitarist Lzzy Hale wails, as her brother and drummer Arejay Hale and bassist Josh Smith lay down an ominous rhythm.

Halestorm revisit some of their past songs on the new EP Reimagined, out now. But the project isn’t a clichéd set of acoustic readings; instead, the hard-rock band stays true to the EP’s title and revamps the arrangements. Their 2009 debut single “I Get Off” taps into brooding funk, while 2012’s “Break In” becomes a duet between Lzzy Hale and Amy Lee of Evanescence.
The left-field head-turner, however, is a faithful cover of “I Will Always Love You,” written by Dolly Parton and a signature hit for Whitney Houston.

It’s been nearly a week since a series of tornadoes struck the Nashville area on March 3rd, causing widespread damage in the city’s densely populated neighborhoods — including the destruction of beloved music venue the Basement East — and killing more than two dozen people in the surrounding area. Volunteers have been working overtime to clear streets and yards or bring food and other necessities to affected areas, but it’s going to be a long road to recover and rebuild.

In a little more than two hours, Jay Buchanan has to catch a plane from Nashville to L.A., where his band, Rival Sons, is nominated in two rock categories at Sunday’s Grammy Awards. But that doesn’t stop the vocalist, who wails like Robert Plant one minute and Ozzy Osbourne the next, from wading into one of music’s great quagmires — the state of rock & roll.
His hot take: The genre is far from dead.
“Rock & roll has only taken a back seat because there are so many other things to gravitate toward,...

When Halestorm won the Grammy for Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance in 2013 for “Love Bites (So Do I),” they figured it’d be one and done. The Recording Academy did away with the category the following year, splitting it into two, and Lzzy Hale, the singer-guitarist of the Nashville-based band, feared they’d now be too heavy for Rock and not metal enough for Metal.
“When that category went away, we thought, ‘Well, that’s not going to happen again. We ruined it,'” Hale tells Rolling Stone. She was wrong.

A row of awards, including two Grammys, lines the mantel above the fireplace in the Nashville-area home of Lzzy Hale and Joe Hottinger. But what the Halestorm vocalist and lead guitarist really want you to take note of are a pair of crystal knickknacks on a nearby table, etched with the initials Rjd.
“These were Ronnie James Dio’s bookends,” says Hottinger excitedly. “I bought them at a silent auction.”
The Dio mementos are just a fraction of the rock memorabilia scattered around the house. A framed black-and-white photo of...
