Elizabeth Mae "Lzzy" Hale (born October 10, 1983) is an American singer, songwriter, and musician. She is best known as the lead singer and rhythm guitarist of the American hard rock band Halestorm, which she co-founded in 1997.

Hale has been actively writing and performing original music since 1997. Hale started learning piano at the age of 5; she later progressed to a guitar at age 16 with her brother Arejay learning how to play drums. The teen siblings released an EP titled Don't Mess With the Time Man in 1999, marking Hale's first appearance as a recording artist and lead vocalist. She has since enjoyed significant success as not only Halestorm's lead singer, but also with guest appearances alongside artists such as Shinedown, Black Stone Cherry, Seether, Adrenaline Mob and Stone Sour.

In the December 2009 issue of Revolver magazine, Hale appeared on the cover alongside Landmine Marathon vocalist Grace Perry as one of the "Hottest Chicks in Metal". For most years since, Hale has been listed as one of the magazine's "Hottest" either in the magazine and/or in its Hottest Chicks calendar. For the magazine's February/March 2015 issue, Hale appeared alone on the cover for both a feature article and once more as one of Revolver's "25 hottest chicks in hard rock and metal".

Hale has also written the advice column "Ask Lzzy" for Revolver.

On July 21, 2010 she appeared on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon with Halestorm, performing "Familiar Taste of Poison". In 2012, on the Carnival of Madness tour, she performed the Halestorm song "Break in" with Evanescence lead singer Amy Lee. Also, on the Alter Bridge Fortress tour, she performed "Watch Over You" with Myles Kennedy on select dates.
