Last month, Bad Company released a tribute album, and this now just popped up on YouTube… Halestorm and Paul Rodgers doing one hell of a version of “Shooting Star”:
Honestly, I was never that big of a fan of the original version… just too long, slow and monotone for me… but this version?
It’s definitely got my attention.
Check out more on the Bad Company tribute album “Can’t Get Enough” out now.
On Friday, Brooks and Dunn released their “Reboot 2” album, and there’s all kinds of reimagined hits of their catalogue. Everyone from Morgan Wallen to Lainey Wilson to Halestorm- yes, Halestorm- are on the album.
Wanna hear a Metal version of “Boot Scootin’ Boogie”?
Thanks to Halestorm, we now have it:
Well, ok then.
I don’t hate it, though.
Lzzy Hale- the vocalist of Halestorm- is a freaking Rock Goddess. I appreciate anything she does.

Recently it was announced that Skid Row’s lead singer Erik Gronwall was leaving the band. They had tour dates to do, so they need a fill in, so… enter the Rock Goddess Lzzy Hale of Halestorm.
Sounds to good to be true, right?
Nope. She is legit filling in until they get a new lead singer.
Last night was her first show with the band at Walker’s Bluff Casino Resort in Carterville, Illinois, and they brought the huse down.
I’m a huge Lzzy fan, as she is just incredibly talented, and has really paved the way for more badass women in Rock.Ā I was really excited to see her covering all the Skid Row live, and of course, she didn’t disappoint.
I mean, it’s Lzzy Hale.
Check out her cover of “18 & Life”:
Dammmnnnn…
Oh, and of course, you can’t have a Skid Row concert without the power ballad “I Remember You”:
Yup. Killed it.
That is an incredibly hard song to sing, and that last vocal run is nearly impossible to nail. Sebastian Bach- the OG lead singer of Skid Row- may be a bit of a hot mess, but dude had the pipes.
If there’s anyone who can handle it, it’s definitely Lzzy.
One of my favorite songs by Journey is “Separate Ways”, and to celebrate it’s 40th Anniversary, Daughtry and Lzzy Hale of Halestorm teamed up to cover it, and of course, SLAYED it!
