Summary

My guests today on Let There Be Talk are none other than Lzzy Hale and Joe Hottinger of the Grammy-winning rock band Halestorm.

Over the past two decades, Halestorm has built a powerhouse reputation with their explosive live shows, hard-hitting albums, and Lzzy’s unmistakable voice leading the charge.

Today, we dive into their incredible journey—from their early days grinding it out in clubs to becoming one of modern rock’s most respected and enduring acts. We’ll talk songwriting, touring, Recording with producer Chris Cobb, guitars, and of course what it was like playing that legendary last Black Sabbath show "Back To The Beginning"

Halestorm have a brand new record out now called Everest and are out touring right now.

Thanks for tuning in.
