Atlantic recording group HALESTORM has announced details of a major North American headline tour. The dates – unveiled earlier today via BandsInTown – begin April 1st at Reading, PA’s Reading Eagle Theatre in the Santander Arena and extend through late May (see attached itinerary). Support throughout the trek comes from special guests DOROTHY and the legendary LITA FORD. In addition, the tour will include stops at a number of festivals and summer radio concerts as well as a pair of much anticipated dates alongside the one and only ROB ZOMBIE, slated for May 18th at Bloomington, IL’s Cellular Coliseum and May19th at Saginaw, MI’s First Merit Bank Event Park.

“This is a tour I've wanted to put together for a long time,” said HALESTORM frontwoman Lzzy Hale. “Not just a package with every band featuring a girl--that's been done a million times. This tour is a different breed, showcasing loud, powerful female voices. Every frontwoman here holds her own both on and off the stage, and has fought more than her share of the good fight. This isn’t your sister’s woman music fest! I'm honored to have the legendary LITA FORD on this run and welcome newcomers DOROTHY who make me so proud of the future of rock. All fans of true rock music—men, women, everyone—need to see this show.”

Widely acknowledged as one of modern hard rock’s most explosive live acts, HALESTORM are kicking off 2016 by crossing the Atlantic for an epic European tour. Highlights include the UK’s annual “Carnival Of Madness Tour”, alongside fellow hard rock icons BLACK STONE CHERRY and Atlantic Records labelmates SHINEDOWN as well as headline shows in Belgium, Germany, France, Finland, Sweden, and Russia. For ticket information, VIP packages, and details on joining the Official Halestorm Fan Club, please see www.halestormrocks.com.

HALESTORM’s non-stop live schedule sees the iconic hard rock outfit continuing to celebrate the success of their new album, Into The Wild Life. The GRAMMY® Award-winning band’s third studio collection made a stunning top 5 debut on the SoundScan/Billboard 200 upon its April 2015 release while also entering Billboard’s “Top Hard Rock Albums” tally at #1 – both marking HALESTORM’s highest chart placement to date.

“Mayhem” – the latest single from Into The Wild Life – is set to impact rock radio outlets across the country later this month. The track’s companion video premieres today and you can check it out on KNAC.COM right HERE.

In other news, HALESTORM are among the many top artists who have recorded cover versions of EAGLES OF DEATH METAL’s “I Love You All The Time” as part of the Sweet Stuff Foundation’s “Play It Forward” campaign to aid victims of last November’s terrorist attacks in Paris. The track is available now on the iTunes Store, Amazon, and Spotify, as well as the official “Play It Forward Store”.

As if all that weren’t enough, HALESTORM are making a very special Into The Wild Life leather jacket available to their male and female fans. Presented in collaboration with Affliction Clothing, the autographed, limited edition jackets are available now exclusively via HALESTORM’s official webstore.
