In Local Music News…
First, an update on Halestorm…The band is currently in Los Angeles writing and doing pre-production for their upcoming full length Atlantic Records debut album. Besides meeting with producers to determine who will give the album their sound and final touches, the band is also in Los Angeles to write with the most talented songwriters in the business. Currently some of the people collaborating with Halestorm are the DeLeo brothers of Stone Temple Pilots fame, Nikki Sixx of Motley Crue, Jon 5 of Rob Zombie, Gilby Clarke of Guns N’Roses, Ryan Dusick of Maroon 5 and others. Halestorm will be playing at the famed Whisky-A-Go-Go in Los Angeles on May 6 with Program The Dead.
Next Saturday afternoon, several area bands will be donating their talents to help out the American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life at St. Francis University.
