2016-08-23 | Evanescence Announces First U.S. Tour Since 2012 | Evanescence has announced a full-fledged U.S. tour for this fall, its first since returning from a 2012-15 hiatus.
The crossover metal act broke the news Monday (Aug. 22). Beginning Oct. 28 in Dallas, they’ll embark on a 16-date U.S. tour, which will carry them to the day before Thanksgiving.
It’s encouraging news for Evanescence fans, who have had to remain patient since the band took a break from the road in late 2012. This period saw the departure of longtime guitarist Terry Balsamo and the band’s release from Wind-Up Records, which frontwoman Amy Lee had sued for unpaid royalties. Ex-Equilibrium guitarist Jen Majura took his place when Evanescence returned to the stage for a trio of U.S. shows ahead of a Japanese Ozziest gig last November.
Before Evanescence hits the road, Amy Lee fans will get to hear her debut children’s album. It’s called "Dream Too Much", and it drops Sept. 30, featuring Lee originals and covers of kid-friendly tunes like "Rubber Duckie.”
On the album front, we last heard from Evanescence in 2011, when they released a self-titled LP on Wind-Up. Could the new dates signal a return to the studio too?
