Location: OVO Hydro
Halestorm, the Lzzy Hale-fronted post-grunge and alt-rock quartet are back on tour. Coming to Glasgow’s OVO Hydro on 21st November 2025.

The GRAMMY-winning band initially formed by siblings Lzzy and Arejay Hale with guitarist Joe Hottinger and bassist Josh Smith, have announced Everest, their sixth studio album out August 8 on Atlantic Records alongside the nEVEREST Duality tour. a US/Canada tour this fall with Lindsey Stirling and supported by Apocalyptica.
The band offered a glimpse of Everest with ‘Darkness Always Wins’, the first song to be revealed from the upcoming collection. The song teases an album, produced by GRAMMY winner Dave Cobb (Brandi Carlile, Chris Stapleton, Jason Isbell), that dives deeply, both lyrically and sonically, into the band’s mountainous climb over the last couple decades.
“Our album Everest is a story of our journey as a band, full of beautiful endings and new beginnings,” says Halestorm frontwoman Lzzy Hale. “We weave a tangled web of melancholy, frustration, anger and the vast purgatory of love and love lost. It is a rollercoaster of epic musical detours, great songwriting and completely unhinged twists and turns. Everest is an auditory representation of the four pillars of Halestorm. Let us reintroduce ourselves and invite you into our world…if you dare.”
Rolling Stone said of ‘Darkness Always Wins’: “What the song has going for is its catchy, brooding, and dramatic in all the ways we love Halestorm songs to be.” Revolver noted: “The arrangement remains lean even as the amps begin to crank into the red, though ‘Darkness Always Wins’ still sports some exquisite minor-key melodicism, a metal-chunked bridge, loud-as-hell requiem bells and a classically rippin’ rock guitar solo.”
The new tour
The newly announced nEVEREST tour follows an epic run first supporting Iron Maiden in Europe and dates with Volbeat in the US with a one night-only-performance at Black Sabbath’s final show in Birmingham, England.
What started as a childhood dream of Lzzy and Arejay Hale, Halestorm has scored seven No.1 hits at rock radio, and their music has surpassed one billion streams across platforms worldwide. They’ve received two GRAMMY nominations and won in 2012 for ‘Love Bites (So Do I)’ as Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance. The band has built a reputation for their dominating live performances and has shared the stage with rock icons like Heaven & Hell, Alice Cooper, and Joan Jett.
