When explaining why she asked her brother to do the backing vocals on 'Do Not Disturb', Lzzy Hale spills that he is more than willing to assist her because he is 'all for women's empowerment.'

AceShowbiz - Halestorm star Lzzy Hale asked her brother to help her sing the band's new track "Do Not Disturb" live, even though the song is about her threesome sex experience.
The rocker's bandmates were struggling to harmonise with Hale on the track during tour rehearsals and so she suggested they call on her brother.
"We're recording the song, and we get it all done. I'm adding those really high harmonies," she says. "That whole chorus, it needs multiple voices for us to pull it off live, because we don't do any tracks or trickery. It's literally all four of just trying to make it work."
"I'm like, 'Oh, you know who's really good at matching me (vocally)? My brother'... Because we're related, he's good at doing the backing vocals. I remember I just kind of put my hand on his back and I'm like, 'Hey, bud, when we do this live...' We didn't even finish the sentence. He's like, 'Sis, I got you. I'm all for women's empowerment. You just be you. I'm good. I'll do the parts'. He's very secure."
Lzzy told California radio station 105.1 The Blaze the racy track is based on a true story.
"I was having a wonderful late-night time overseas a little while ago and it was at the end of the tour, so everyone was kind of just throwing down, and I met a very beautiful person," she recalls. "It all started with the opening line. I just thought, 'Well, I'm not going to be here tomorrow. I'm literally going home, so I'm never going to see these people again'. So I turned to her and I'm like, 'Call me crazy, but I think we should make out and see where that goes'."
"That happened, and one thing leads to another, and we had a really great time until about five in the morning - about an hour before we were supposed to (leave). I never call it a walk of shame, because I always feel like I'm such a bad**s when that happens. I saw the sign and I'm like, 'Oh, that's so obvious.' I wrote it down - 'do not disturb' - and I ended up writing the rest of it a little while after it. I'm basically walking people through that particular experience."
