American rockers Evanescence have announced an Australian tour in August and September this year to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their debut album, Fallen. It remains one of the most influential albums of the turn of the century and will be the focal point of the national tour.
Fans will be able to witness highlights from the gothic beauty of the 2003 debut release and a career spanning set of favourites. The tour will head to Adelaide on Monday 28th of August and will be performed at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre, north-west of the city centre. Evanescence will also stop in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Perth.
Vocalist Amy Lee and co-founder Ben Moody began writing and recording songs in the mid-1990s, but it’s their 2003 “Fallen” that went on to score five nominations at the 2004 Grammy Awards, winning “Best Hard Rock Performance” and “Best New Artist”, with the album’s symphonic and delicate ballad “My Immortal” also scoring an additional nomination at the Grammy Awards the following year.
Hitting the top 10 charts in multiple countries upon its release, including Australia and a No. 1 in the U.K., “Fallen” sold 10 million copies in the U.S. alone, with over 17 million copies sold worldwide and officially reaching diamond certification in late 2022.
Renowned for their enamouring live show as much as they are for their haunting, potent and visceral material, this marks the band’s first Australian tour since their sublime run with local symphony orchestras in 2018. So, get set to revisit the album that started it all and beyond when Evanescence return to our shores to celebrate 20 years of Fallen.
