How Lzzy Hale Became Skid Row's New Singer 

I'm a 52 year old who doesn't get excited about much of anything musically these days. But watching some of the videos of Lizzy fronting Skid Row got me all excited. Her voice is perfect. She breathes new life into Skid Row.

Skid Row is sooooo on FIRE with her...

You wouldn't deny this woman anything. What a performer she is. A great frontperson for her band, Wails like a banshee, plays a mean riff, nice as can be and there is absolutely nothing fake about her at all - she is the genuine article. I wish her every success because she's earned it. And then you see the performances and she fucking nailed them too. What an artist she is...

Lzzy with Skid Row is going to be amazing. I would love to have a live album of them performing. 🤟😎👍

Lzzy deserves all the success in the world!

I first saw Halestorm in 2012 opening for Shinedown here in Nottingham. I'd just interviewed Shinedown for the magazine I worked for and got to hear Halestorm soundcheck. They were amazing and humble. That night, Lzzy did an acapella section in one song and it was mindblowing. One of my favourite concert moments ever. I got to interview Lzzy later when they did the 3rd Halestorm album and she was just the nicest person possible. Really chilled and easy to talk to. Such a humble person and so talented. She is NAILING IT with Skid Row.

Lzzy is a good person and great performer is why there are no/few negative comments.

I just saw a live video of Lzzy with Skid Row & was just blown away thinking; Is she their new lead singer? If not, I would hire her instantly because she was SO GOOD 🔥🔥🔥

Beautiful, talented, articulate, humble, wise, classy. Love Lzzy! 🤘🏼

Her "I Remember You" popped up on my recommended list and I instantly loved it. Such a perfect fit.

He's a good interviewer, he stayed out of her way and just let her talk rather than interrupting her every minute like so many others do who think they are the center of attention rather than the guest. Good job dude!

I saw Halestorm once 2 years ago. What a band and Lizzy’s voice wow.

Love Lzzy she looks like she is 28 years old, what a great rocker chick.

Now i have to follow two bands , Halestorm and Skid Row ...everywhere Lzzy sings there is magic !!

I'll be seeing them tomorrow in Reno. It should be amazing.

Can't wait to see Skid Row with Lizzy TONIGHT at the Hard Rock in Wheatland, CA (Sacramento area). My wife told me that Lizzy was going to sing for them and I just started smiling!!!

Lzzy is going to be a big influence on women who want to be in the rock world and she is now for being a rock goddess to the band The Warning.

Big fan of both bands, and after revisiting Lzzy's rendition of Slave to the grind on Halestorm's Reanimate EP I am sure this is going to be great

58 year old musician here, whether you've heard me on recordings or not, doesn't matter. This lady's voice - it's indescribable, it's so way beyond talented that there are no words to describe it. Lizzy is TRULY, without exception, a once in a life time prodigy. And the proof in the pudding would be if she were to somehow branch out further and put out a, I don't know, Harry Connick Jr type of orchestral album that showcased her voice without the shattering pitches and screaming. I just don't know - there is literally NOTHING like her. Hasn't been anything like her in my lifetime. I'm talking Billy Holiday, Janis Joplin, Linda Rondstadt, Anne Wilson, Gretchen Wilson, many hundreds of others - they simply don't compare. Lizzy Hale, hands down, is the most amazing voice of of the last 100 years and there will be NO ONE to compare - lyrically, vocally, dynamically - in any way that you can imagine to this woman. Those of you who are not musicians, who don't understand even the basics of scales, voicings, etc. you will never understand what I'm trying to say in your wildest dreams. There is no voice like Lizzy Hale - period, end of discussion. She's not a once in a generation - she is a once in a millenium voice that if you are priviledged enough to experience in your lifetime, then your life has been blessed and you have had a spiritual experience in a realm that you previously were unaware existed. There are no further words to elucidate this woman's talent - simply seek it out, and experience it in every form or manner of experience that presents to you. Your life, your very soul will be forever changed by it. Listen, please - at every available opportunity you have to take it in - search for it, seek it out - you will leave this world a much more fulfilled person because you did so.

What a match! I wish I could see this live

So happy for Lizzy. She is definitely very respected and has earned that. She's part of a great band of very talented musicians that compliment each other... so great!!

This is gonna be great. I am very happy for Lzzie and the guys in Skid Row

I can't wait to hear this lineup.

So excited for this. My uncle asked a few months ago if I wanted to do Skid Row at Riverside. Wasn't overly excited and put it on the back burner. Then the announcement came and tickets were bought immediately

Lizzy has put some fresh energy into Skid Row since joining the band. She's a perfect fit for their songs.

«We’re writing a record right now.» Wonderful news! ❤ Halestorm

I am sooooo bummed I missed out on the Chicago show! If I had known Lizzy was singing I DEFINITELY would have gone!! PLEASE come around again!!!!!

I took my daughter to see you in Fargo nd, she was in high school, now she still loves to sing, I did buy her a jbl pa system with a mixer and nice mic. We are big fans. Keep up the inspiration

Lizzy you are so awesome!! So glad to see your smiling face!

She TOTALLY fits. The videos that have been uploaded have demonstrated that she should BE the lead singer of Skid Row. Perfect fit. So good. Should be permanent.

One of the greatest lady rockers of all time

I hope izzy will do great on the tour and i wish erik the best for his recovery!❤❤❤❤

Love the machine shop hat. One of my favorite hang outs!!!!

Makes your heart all warm and fuzzy! 🤟💪🍔

This is so great!!I love her story about her love of the music at an early age, and now getting to be with them, awesome

Happy. And all the best to Erik. Get well!

This is so awesome!! Would love to see one of these shows!

Great interview bro. - Ray From Maryland

I have always been a huge fan of her ever since Hallstrom .she is amazing singer and a great guitarist it's so cool she has played with her favorite band icons.

Skid Row needs to give Bach a call and make things right. That said, I've heard some Halestorm, so I'm not mad at the choice in a pinch. Kind of like Axl covering for Brian Johnson.

I knew nothing about this person before this. What a voice! Can't wait to hear what they come up with!!

Skid Row has gained a great rocker complete with the best voice! I'm sure she won't disappoint!

Such a great awesome connection! Loved skid row as a kid. Love you Lzzy.

get to see this show next weekend so excited! Lzzy is just insanely talented

So Happy for her it's got to be exciting for her. She is doing a really great job on them old songs .

What a freakin cool setup..... can't believe Skid Row are still going. I absolutely loved "I Remember You" when I was young and still sing it today..... I doin't live in USA, but here's hoping I get to hear Lizzy singing that song, either through RU-vid or some other means..... This is just the coolest :)

So cool. Love The Machine Shop hat, represent!!!!

Going to be interesting! Can’t wait. Lzzy will crush it!!

OMG I CANT WAIT ROCK IT GIRL

Lzzy looks so good!

Lzzy is such a beautiful person and amazing musician and vocalist. Just an example, the way she supported The Warning is just an amazing and most emotional way of demonstrating this (for me, at least) fact. So happy for her.

Lzzy Efin Hale is going to kill this! I'm so excited for this!

I love Halestorm and I think that this will be an awesome move. Can't wiat to hear some new content with Lzzy!

This is awesome Skid Row news! Lzzy is an insane vocalist!

I love Skid Row. One of my favourite childhood bands. Still listen often to this day. In saying that I have Never followed SR since Sebastian's departure. Sebastian is SR. Only now since hearing of Lzzy filling in will I watch everything they do with her. Love Lzzy also and with what I've seen she is killing it. But Sebastian is Skid Row and once she has had her time with them there will be no Row for me till you have the real deal. Sebastian Bach is Skid Row and always will be. Anything less just a tribute band.

That’s so cool, I hope it works out for everyone involved

Halestorm is not my cup,of tea, but I say that respectfully, because this woman deserves all the success they have gotten. I’ll never forget in the early 00’s seeing them open up for what was, at the time, the most popular regional band going in Central Pennsylvania. Their father was playing bass, and mom was walking around the club with a battery powered spotlight shining it on her/them…..essentially taking the light show in the club that might over for the opening band. I remember being in that club that night thinking how cool it was seeing this entire family come together for these kids (at the time). This entire family went for broke in the music business and they did it. I remember stories as well how in those early days, which coincided with the early days of social media, how she was extremely active in responding to fans posts and emails personally, basically winning fans over one person at a time not only with musical talent, but personality as well.

The RU-vid footage of her singing Quicksand Jesus live in Iowa is off the charts. Just amazing how she nailed it.

I think this is Epic!! I can’t wait to hear Lizzy with them!!

She’s amazing 😇😇

Congrats

Have loads of fun!

Excited for her, she seems thrilled!🎧

I really loved when she did a featured singing track on Dream Theater's "Our New World" from The Astonishing. She is one hell of a singer, and has done so many collabs, from Daughtry to Lindsey Stirling. Really happy for her

This is awesome. She is going to be awesome. I went to high school with Nick Raskulinecz he always said he was going to be a producer. That guy had a plan

Lzzy's current vocal range and power is what Bach's was in the late 80's. She hits all the notes with POWER just as he did in his prime. It's a cosmically perfect scenario and that's why there aren't any negative comments or reviews. She's a grand slam hire for Skid Row.

She 100% killed it.

Perfect fit she's a natural great job

I love Lzzy Hale and I love Skid Row and Sebastian Bach! It's going to rock May 31! Reno.

Lzzy is amazing. So down to earth yet being a star herself. It is almost she hasn't a clue how good she is as a singer!

Wait until she hears the news that Halestorm is replacing her with Sebastian Bach.

I love when people come on here and bash Sebastian when if it wasn't for him nobody what even know who they were! Plain and simple whether you like Sebastian or not is not the point! He is still selling records and pulling in large crowds and doing great! I know this because I have been too many! I don't just watch it on my phone and judge!!!! Im actually in the venue with him n he sounds amazing! Just saying

Amazing. What a humble person she is! Just a real professional and bad ass singer.

Bach is a wreck. Lzzy is going to kill it. Great pairing.

I love her and her voice Keep rocking Your voice is the best 🤘🤘

They should plan 1 more really big show with Lzzy because it's just such a great match up and more ppl deserve to see this incredible incarnation of Skid Row.

Lots of Love for Lizzy, she always gives it her all live :)

God I love Lizzy, what an amazing vocalist and artist and woman

Lzzy is super cool❤ Rock on !!

Lzzy is awesome.

I'll never see Skid Row without Bach. Some people just can't be replaced

This is so great! This is the first time since SB left that I would actually like to see them live again. Not heard her sing but just love her vibe.

A bunch of us former military guys did security at the water front concert years ago in Buffalo NY. The event ended with a wild rain storm. While waiting under a pop up tent to get paid, this voice came outta nowhere asking us questions about the city and fun things to do. It was Lindsey. So cool, everyday person. She stuck around and chatted for a bit before heading to the bus. Very cool.

Congrats to Lizzy & SR both!

I’ve seen Skid Row with every lead singer they have had and I must say this is the first time I’m excited to see a lead singer since Bas. Great choice guys! ❤

Great news!!!

Killer news!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻

Lzzy is going to kill it!

Wow amazing

I love the lady!!

She sounds killer with them!

Lzzy is a pioneer for rock no doubt

I just watched the show and I'm like if that really happened???!!!!! Unbelievable indeed! 😳❤️

Lzzy is bumble and talented no bs she loves what she does and is dam good at it unlike many overrated pop stars.

It just makes sense 😊

I’ve been with Lzzy for 2 years and she’s amazing! Stay tuned for a wedding date❤

Awesome 😊

She will sustain Skid Row. She amazing ❤

Você merece demais. ❤❤❤❤

So cool
