WHAT ACCOMPLISHMENT ARE YOU MOST PROUD OF?
I’ve been in Halestorm since I was 13. Did I know I’d get here? No. Did I believe I could? Yes! Besides winning a Grammy, the radio hits, and our touring prowess, I’m most proud of my bandmates and the way we are able to communicate, still love each other, and fight the good fight together. After all these years we are still doing it our way. And that’s the biggest accomplishment.
WHO HAS MADE THE GREATEST IMPACT ON YOUR LIFE?
Two of the biggest heroes I ever got a chance to meet and open for were Ronnie James Dio with Heaven & Hell and Alice Cooper. They not only greatly influenced me musically but gave some fundamental baselines. It was because of Dio and Alice Cooper that I discovered that I was “weird” or “not like the other girls.” They both encouraged me to own that weird as my superpower. Now, years later into my career, I can trace that journey from its inception to what has now become my mission statement.
WHAT IS YOUR DEFINITION OF BEAUTY?
Beautiful is owning what makes you stick out. By being your truest self and shedding the pressure of social norms (which are over, by the way), those things that makeyou “weird” become your superpower and are the most beautiful part of you!
