Hard rock Pennsylvania band Halestorm have planned a very special UK and European tour for 2022. As well as touring with Evanescence in the US later in 2021, the band has announced “An Evening With Halestorm”, a very peculiar style of shows. In fact, it consists of playing in smaller venues, as well as performing songs that you might not expect to hear live.
“We are so excited to announce our upcoming ‘Evening With’ tour of the UK and Europe this February through March 2022!” guitarist and lead singer Lzzy Hale stated. “That’s right, all Halestorm, all the time! A collection of up-close and personal shows where we will be performing deep cuts, all the fan-favourites, and even some brand-new songs! Come join us! Tickets go on sale this Friday, June 18!”
For the UK run, the band led by brothers Lzzy and Arejay Hale will play venues of the calibre of the Albert Hall in Manchester, Birmingham’s O2 Academy, concluding in the prestigious O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire in London (see full dates below). Tickets go on sale here on Friday the 18th of June.
Lzzy recently appeared on SiriusXM and talked about the band’s follow-up album of “Vicious”, released in 2018. She said: “It’s going great. We’re actually kind of in the eleventh hour. Everything is starting to really congeal and just reveal itself. So we’re at the tail end of it. We already have a first single picked; that just happened. So you’re definitely going to be hearing music sooner than later. As far as the release date of the record, I don’t have that yet.”
As per Lzzy’s statements, the new album is produced by Nick Raskulinecz, he seems to be very close to the band, and also worked on Halestorm’s “ReAniMate 3.0: The CoVeRs eP” in 2017. “He’s so passionate and he’s just a fan of music,” she explained. “And I know that sounds surprising — oh, yeah, a music producer that isn’t a fan of music. There are a lot of those; there are a lot of those types of producers that are not fans of your music, let alone really listening to your genre. So it’s just great to be working with a producer that just loves the same kind of music and knows what we can do.”
