HALESTORM's LZZY HALE Discusses Her Songwriting Process In New Episode Of 'How I Wrote That Song'
BMI (Broadcast Music Inc.),Beasley Media Group and Xperi's HD Radio Technology recently announced the launch of the third season of BMI's signature series "How I Wrote That Song", featuring acclaimed songwriters from country and rock/pop. Each episode of the six-part series will give audiences an insider's look into the creative process of writing and producing hit songs as well as the stories behind them.
In the latest installment of "How I Wrote That Song", Radio Sara of WMMR asks Lzzy Hale of HALESTORM about her biggest hits, going back to when the band came out swinging in 2009 with the single "I Get Off". Despite the saucy title, the song's first draft was actually about how the band won over a few hardened record executives in the audience at a live showcase. Lzzy developed the lyrics further with a writing collective called The Girls, explaining: "I was telling them this story [about the show] and one of them — and this is why I love writing with women, because our sense of humor is the same — was like, 'Oh, so you got off on them enjoying what you do'… and we took over this piano, in the lobby of this hotel, and were singing 'I get off on you, getting off on me,' just totally annoying everybody around us."
She adds with a laugh: "It originally didn't start from sex, but it definitely grew its own legs!"
Sara and Lzzy also discuss the Grammy-nominated song "Uncomfortable" and a new track called "Terrible Things". Along the way, they touch on her unexpected radio hit with DAUGHTRY this year, swapping gender perspectives in song lyrics, and how activism plays a role in her writing process.
Additional award-winning music creators included in the series include heavy hitters Ann Wilson (HEART),Tyler Hubbard (May 30),Luke Spiller of THE STRUTS (June 13) and Clint Black (June 27).
"BMI is thrilled to announce a stellar lineup for Season 3 of 'How I Wrote That Song'," said BMI's AVP, creative, Nashville, Mason Hunter. "It is such a great way to highlight the vast talent that BMI has the pleasure to represent, and it gives our songwriters a way to connect with fans as they tell the stories behind their biggest hits. Thanks to our wonderful longstanding partners at Xperi's HD Radio Technology and Beasley Media Group for pushing this compelling content out to their listeners."
"After two consecutive, highly successful campaigns with our partners at BMI and Xperi/HD Radio, we are excited to bring back 'How I Wrote That Song' to celebrate some of the biggest hit songwriters heard on our radio brands," said Beasley Media Group's chief content officer Justin Chase. "Our listeners and digital audience love to hear the story behind their favorite songs!"
"The 'How I Wrote That Song' series has been a great success, and Xperi is excited to continue working with BMI and Beasley Media Group to highlight the songwriters who create the songs we know and love," said Xperi's senior vice president, radio, Joe D'Angelo. "This is especially meaningful to us as we continue to build on 20 years of broadcast radio innovation, both through our HD Radio Technology, which delivers superior audio quality and a wealth of content choices for music fans around the world, and our DTS AutoStage in-vehicle media platform, which now supports lyrics, further bringing the songwriter into the radio experience."

❛ why can’t i come with you? ❜ ~Sara
Nicky stroked his chin, taking in her expression. He had seen Sara Beasley stubborn many times over the years. He was often the first person who knew the expression she got before she began to scream. Stomp her foot. Lecture, or even snitch. Tonight was new. She had stomped her small foot, sure. But there was a spark in her eye. A curl to her smile that would match even a brother of Cabin 11. More and more he found himself taking Sara along. Found himself wanting to be near him. Even when the world spun so fast all he wanted to do was go faster.
Maybe she could keep up tonight.
"If you don't tell your brothers you can." He glanced down briefly at her attire and dimpled. "And put on a hoodie."

"Soo." There was an exhale and cloud of smoke that rolled over the strawberry vines. "You're into my brother now." Man was that fucking amusing. If she and Percy were like mustard and wine Kinicky DeLuca and Sara Beasley were oil and water. It wasn't that they hated each other. They just preferred not to be around each other comfortably. But the minute she had gotten home it wasn't hard to tell there had been a shift in every member of their quixotic quad.
Her dark hair swished in the night, falling over a shoulder as she leaned in to pass to her best friend. "It was the dimples, wasn't it?"
Sara laid back, eyes closed. It had been so long since she had gotten to lay in the fields with Carson, smoking and gossiping about other people. Of course, it hadn’t occurred to her that Carson wanted to talk about her and Nicky instead. Her cheeks flamed red as she asked. She couldn’t snatch the joint fast enough, inhaling it a bit too quick and making herself cough up a lung. She wasn’t high enough for this.
She waited for the burning in her throat to pass, not wanting to croak the words out like a frog. “He’s nice,” she hummed, passing the joint back and looking down at her nails. Showing profound interest in her lavender polish that coated them. “Still infuriating though. But bearable at least. Maybe it was the dimples.” Her eyes shot up to Carson, smile still on her face.

who died and made you boss of me ? ❜ ~Sara for Nicky
"You did when your brain completely shut off Beasley!" There was a pressure throbbing behind the teenagers brow, even as he tried to fight off a smile. The closest resolution he could think of was keeping a knuckle pressed to the arch of it. "You know that this is a bad idea."

“ penny for your thoughts? hell. a dollar? ten? fifty? my whole life-savings? damn, at this rate i’d give away everything i own just to hear your voice again. “ -Nicky
She was turned towards the window of the car, watching the faint lights beyond the tint blur by. She had been content to sit in the silence, ignoring the tension that filled the small space. She quirked an eyebrow as he spoke, rolling her eyes at his dramatics. “Thinking about how apparently I needed to slow down on the drinks while your mother insulted me the entire time.” She slumped in her seat further, still not bothering to look at her boyfriend. “Only the Gods know how bad Sara Beasley 4 drinks in will tarnish the Deluca reputation.”
