Elizabeth Mae "Lzzy" Hale[6] (born October 10, 1983)[7] is an American musician, best known as the lead singer and rhythm guitarist of hard rock band Halestorm, which she co-founded with her brother Arejay Hale in 1997.
In the December 2009 issue of Revolver magazine, Hale appeared on the cover alongside former Landmine Marathon vocalist Grace Perry as one of the "Hottest Chicks in Metal".[10] For most years since, Hale has been listed as one of the magazine's "Hottest" either in the magazine and/or in its Hottest Chicks calendar. For the magazine's February/March 2015 issue, Hale appeared alone on the cover for both a feature article and once more as one of Revolver's "25 hottest chicks in hard rock and metal".[11]
Hale has also written the advice column "Ask Lzzy" for Revolver.[12]
Gibson promotion
In 2021, Gibson announced that Hale was being named the first female Gibson brand ambassador.[13] A long-time fan and user, Hale had previously partnered with Gibson to design the Limited Edition Lzzy Hale Explorer guitar.[14] As a brand ambassador, it was announced Hale would help create new signature models from Gibson, Epiphone, and Kramer.[13]
During Halestorm's tour with The Pretty Reckless in 2022, Hale gifted a white Gibson Explorer to guitarist Daniela Villarreal from The Warning during the middle of their opening set.[15] The making of the guitar was a collaborative effort between Hale and Gibson.
Guest appearances
As a musical artist Hale has collaborated with a number of other notable bands. Some of the songs she has lent vocals to include:
On April 7, 2018, Hale, backed by Cane Hill, played wrestler Ember Moon to the ring for her NXT Women's title defence against Shayna Baszler, performing her entrance theme "Free the Flame" at NXT TakeOver: New Orleans.[22]
In 2020, Hale was made the host of the third season of “A Year in Music” on AXS TV,[35] which she continued to host in season four.[36] She was also announced to be a judge on the inaugural season of the television show “No Cover”, a music competition show where unsigned bands and artists performed original songs with the hope of winning a record contract.[37]
Hale is the fourth Elizabeth Mae in her family, she said in an interview for Loudwire's "Wikipedia Fact or Fiction".[41]
On October 11, 2014, Hale said she is bisexual on her personal Twitter account.[42] In 2015, bandmate Josh Smith confirmed that Hale was in a relationship with fellow Halestorm guitarist Joe Hottinger,[43] and in 2021, Hale stated on Twitter, “I’m a bi gal in an 18-year relationship with a man.“[44]
Hale often speaks out about the importance of supporting one's mental health. In 2018, she started the #RaiseYourHorns trend online following the suicide of Huntress vocalist Jill Janus, resulting in thousands of pictures being posted online from celebrities and rock fans sharing their own experiences with mental illness.[46]
