HALESTORM's LZZY HALE Performs Surprise Rendition Of 'I Will Always Love You' At 'HerrinFesta Italiana' (Video)

HALESTORM frontwoman Lzzy Hale performed a surprise solo rendition of “I Will Always Love You”, the love ballad made famous by Whitney Houston and Dolly Parton, during the band’s May 28 concert at HerrinFesta Italiana in Herrin, Illinois. Fan-filmed video footage of Lzzy‘s version can be seen below.

HALESTORM is collaborating with Nick Raskulinecz on material for the band’s fourth album. At least some of the sessions are taking place at the Dark Horse Recording studios just outside Nashville.

Raskulinecz is an acclaimed producer who has previously worked with RUSH, KORN, ALICE IN CHAINS and DEFTONES, in addition to having helmed HALESTORM‘s third covers EP, “ReAniMate 3.0: The CoVeRs eP”, which came out in January.

Lzzy recently told the 97.7 WQLZ radio station that HALESTORM was “about half way” through the production process for the band’s next album. She said: “We have a lot of tracks. We’ve been kind of doing both [recording and working on pre-production]. We’ve been writing in my personal studio, at my house, and then we’ve been going into an actual studio with a producer and doing kind of pre-pro as we go along, which we’ve never really done. ‘Cause usually, it’s, like, ‘Okay, we have all the songs together, and then we’ll go in the studio.’ And this time we have like half-songs and then we go in the studio and we finish them. We have some keeper song takes and there’s maybe some vocal or guitar takes that we won’t redo later, but, yeah, it’s everything all at once at the same time, so we’re multitasking.”

“ReAniMate 3.0: The CoVeRs eP” featured an eclectic mix of songs from artists like METALLICA, SOUNDGARDEN, JOAN JETT & THE BLACKHEARTS, SOPHIE B. HAWKINS, TWENTY ONE PILOTS and WHITESNAKE.

“Into The Wild Life” was criticized by some fans for veering too far into pop music territory.
