Lzzy Hale shares “we are so excited to be coming back to New Zealand! There is such a passion for hard rock there and we are very humbled to be invited back with our new friends in Devilskin! You can expect glorious debauchery and lots of loud music! See you all soon!”
Devilskin say "sharing the stage with US rock giants Halestorm is going to be a real blast! Halestorm are one of the hardest working bands around and their live show is legendary. It will definately be the hottest tour this summer! Jennie Skulander and Lzzy Hale on the same bill, hell, the audience are in for a real treat."
