Ernie Ball_ BIG SOUND with Halestorm

Halestorm performs three songs live for Ernie Ball's Big Sound series, recorded at The Dark Garden — the home studio Lzzy Hale and Joe Hottinger built together after making Everest. The set includes "Rain Your Blood On Me" and "Darkness Always Wins" from Everest (2025), plus their GRAMMY-winning hit "Love Bites (So Do I)." This marks the first time Halestorm has filmed and recorded a live performance inside the space. Big Sound is Ernie Ball's ongoing video series featuring exclusive, in-the-room performances from today's most influential musicians, filmed in spaces that hold personal meaning to each artist.
