Evanescence to tour the UK in November

Multi-platinum goth metal band Evanescence have announced their first UK tour with support from Taylor Momsen’s grunge tinged rock outfit The Pretty Reckless and progressive art-rockers Fair To Midland following a three-year sabbatical.

Kicking off at London’s Hammersmith Apollo on 4 November, they finish up in Birmingham on the 13, before heading over to mainland Europe. 

Singer Amy Lee said: “We're dying to come back to the UK and play the new music for our fans. Can't wait!”

Following the worldwide success of their album “The Open Door” (Wind-Up Records & Sony BMG, 2006) the band went into the studio on April 11 this year to begin recording their third studio album with producer Nick Raskulinecz, whose recent producing credits include Foo Fighters, RUSH, Stone Sour, Deftones and Alice in Chains. 

Evanescence new record is due to be released in the fall on Wind Up/EMI.
