HALESTORM, the Pennsylvania-bred and Nashville-based quartet, has shared a new two-track bundle of singles, the retrospective ballad “How Will You Remember Me?” and the sultry tribute to bisexuality “Like A Woman Can”. Recorded live from the road on HALESTORM‘s current “nEVEREST” tour, the songs are taken from the band’s recently released sixth full-length studio album “Everest”, out on Atlantic Records. Lending orchestration to the tracks are tour buddies and Finnish symphonic metallers APOCALYPTICA.
HALESTORM comments: “We’re so excited to announce that we just dropped two tracks live from the ‘nEVEREST’ tour!!! Go enjoy ‘How Will You Remember Me?’ live and a special live version of ‘Like A Woman Can’ featuring our good friends from our North American tour APOCALYPTICA. This is only a preview of what you will experience on the ‘nEVEREST’ tour! So go grab your tickets today to catch us is Europe and the UK!”
Awarding “Everest” four stars, The Times declared, “There is fantastical appeal throughout.” The Daily Star concurred, reminding fans about the band’’s upcoming tour with their four-star review, stating “headlining arenas in November, every track here is sure to get phones out en masse.”
“Everest” came hot on the heels of HALESTORM‘s fiery European tour with metal icons IRON MAIDEN. The U.K.’s Metal Hammer said of opening night, “Before all that, it falls to HALESTORM to take on the famously unenviable task of warming up an IRON MAIDEN crowd — a task they ace pretty effortlessly, in fairness. Decades in and arena headliners themselves at this point, the Pennsylvania rockers also have the ace in the hole that is Lzzy Hale, whose screams, croons, cries and shrieks reaffirm her status as one of the best singers of her generation. Half of their support set is comprised of tracks from imminent album ‘Everest’, and you can understand why they’re feeling confident about it: the new material sounds excellent.”
After wrapping the IRON MAIDEN tour, the band had the honor of performing at BLACK SABBATH‘s “Back To The Beginning”, Ozzy Osbourne‘s last show.
“Everest” came out in August. HALESTORM worked with producer Dave Cobb, after making three records with Nick Raskulinecz.
Fronted by Lzzy with drummer Arejay Hale, guitarist Joe Hottinger and bassist Josh Smith, HALESTORM‘s music has earned multiple platinum and gold certifications from the RIAA, and the band has earned a reputation as a powerful live music force, headlining sold-out shows and topping festival bills around the world, and sharing the stage with icons including HEAVEN & HELL, Alice Cooper, Joan Jett and JUDAS PRIEST. Additionally, Lzzy was named the first female brand ambassador for Gibson and served as host of AXS TV‘s “A Year In Music”.
“Love Bites (So Do I)”, from HALESTORM‘s second album in 2012, won the Grammy Award that year for “Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance”.
In 2019, HALESTORM was nominated for “Best Rock Performance” Grammy for the song “Uncomfortable”.
