Halestorm

Halestorm is an American rock band from Red Lion, Pennsylvania, consisting of lead vocalist and guitarist Lzzy Hale, drummer Arejay Hale, guitarist Joe Hottinger, and bassist Josh Smith. Siblings Lzzy and Arejay founded the band in 1997. The group's self-titled debut album was released in 2009 through Atlantic Records.

The lead single "Love Bites (So Do I)" from their second album The Strange Case Of... (2012) won the Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance. The band's third album, Into the Wild Life (2015), peaked at number five on the Billboard 200.

Halestorm is known for their constant touring, often performing as many as 250 shows a year. After touring as supporting artists for hard rock and heavy metal acts, they sold out their first headlining arena show in 2016. They have gone on to host tours throughout the United States and internationally, and they are a regularly-appearing act at music festivals. AllMusic stated that the band has become "a fixture of American rock radio."
