Halestorm singer Lzzy Hale packs a powerful punch. Not only do her razor-sharp vocals give an edge to songs such as "Love Bites (So Do I)," "I Miss The Misery," "Mz. Hyde," and "Amen," she is quite adept at serving up meaty riffs on her signature Gibson Explorer. Speaking of guitar, as the other ingredient in the group's twin-guitar attack, Joe Hottinger is known for wielding his own arsenal of twisted riffs and searing solos.
When it comes to metal inspiration, who are the icons these two GRAMMY winners look up to? You'll find the answer to this question and more in Hale and Hottinger's turn on One Take, GRAMMY.com's fun rapid-fire question-and-answer series.
The duo also reveals their respective first concert experiences, favorite movies about music (hint: one is a Cameron Crowe film; the other a high-flying documentary), dream venues, favorite places to write songs, their favorite Halestorm lyrics, the first song they played as a band, and more.
Halestorm are in the midst of wrapping a U.S. tour in May in support of their latest album, 2015's Into The Wild Life. In recent interviews, Hale & Co. have teased they are hard at work on a "very rock" new album.
