Potter of Charleston, South Carolina’s 98 Rock radio station recently conducted an interview with HALESTORM frontwoman Lzzy Hale. You can now listen to the chat using the SoundCloud widget below.
Asked how she ended up dressing up as a nun for an onstage appearance during GHOST’s October 6, 2015 performance at The Pageant in St. Louis, Missouri, Lzzy said: “One of our crew girls is dating one of their crew guys. So we had this day off and they just so happened to kind of cross paths. But we were just kind of go see the show. And then they asked both me and my friend, ‘Would you like to be our ‘sisters of sin’?’ So we had to dress up like nuns. They had the costumes and everything all ready, and they were, like, ‘Here you go.’ So we fed people Communion.”
HALESTORM’s first two albums, 2009’s “Halestorm” and 2012’s “The Strange Case Of…” were both officially certified gold in March by the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America) for sales of more than 500,000 copies. The certifications came after RIAA started including on-demand audio and video streams and a track sale equivalent in gold and platinum album award.
The band’s third effort, “Into The Wild Life”, debuted at No. 5 on the Billboard 200 album chart, selling 56,000 copies in its first week of release — more than double the first-week haul of their second CD — but has not reached gold yet.

Sometimes you have a day off in St. Louis on the same day that Ghost is playing in town. And sometimes Ghost not only…
