Halestorm frontwoman Lzzy Hale has been tapped to host next year’s She Rocks Awards, an event celebrating women in all genres of music. The 2021 award program will also feature a handful of honorees from the rock world, including Amy Lee from Evanescence, the Go-Go’s, the Runaways’ Cherie Currie, drummer Cindy Blackman of Santana, comedian Margaret Cho and more.

The event is sponsored by guitar software company Positive Grid in conjunction with the Women’s International Music Network. Other recipients at the ceremony will include composer and pianist Starr Parodi, Grammy-winning recording engineer Ann Mincieli, The Music People executive Sharon Hennessey and Peloton executive Gwen Riley.

Yahoo Entertainment personality Lyndsey Parker will host the event’s pre-show countdown.

This isn’t Hale’s first time at the She Rocks Awards. She previously attended the show as an honoree and accepted the Inspire Award for helping to motivate young girls and women with music.
