(Los Angeles – June 5, 2026) – Today, GRAMMY® Award-winning rock band Evanescence release their highly anticipated sixth studio album Sanctuary — listen here/order here. The 12-track record was produced by by Zakk Cervini (Bad Omens, YUNGBLD, Bring Me The Horizon, Spiritbox), Jordan Fish (Bring Me The Horizon, Poppy, House of Protection, Architects), and Nick Raskulinecz (Deftones, Korn, Foo Fighters, Rush).

“This album is over three years in the making,” said Amy Lee. “I am so damn proud of every second of it. It’s overwhelming. Working on it has been my outlet for so much that feels wrong and out of control, and a place to ignite hope through the power of music and connection.” 

Sanctuary includes “Afterlife” — the multi-week #1 rock song featured in Netflix’s breakout animated series Devil May Cry — alongside current single “Who Will You Follow,” which currently sits at #1 on Billboard’s Rock & Alternative Airplay Chart and recently earned the band their first-ever #1 on Billboard’s Hard Rock Song Chart. The official music video, directed by Jensen Noen, emphasizes the importance of seeking authenticity in an era where truth feels increasingly and intentionally corrupted — listen here/watch here.

Sanctuary is now available as a Digital Album, Standard CD, Deluxe CD/Blu-Ray and limited-edition Box Set. A double vinyl of the album will be released on September 4th. Last month, the band also launched direct-to-consumer pre-orders featuring exclusive deluxe CDs and vinyl only available through the Evanescence webstore — find here. The deluxe CD includes a Blu-ray featuring a concert film from the band’s biggest-ever headline show, Live in São Paulo, a documentary chronicling Evanescence’s 2023 South America tour, and an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the making of the “Who Will You Follow” video.

The band will kick off their World Tour — the top-selling summer rock tour — on June 11 in West Palm Beach, FL, and continuing across North America, UK and Europe — tickets here. Special guest Spiritbox and Nova Twins will open on the North American portion of the tour, and special guest Poppy will support on the UK & Europe shows with Nova Twins opening outside the UK. K.Flay, who is featured on Evanescence’s end title song from Ballerina, “Fight Like A Girl,” will open the UK shows. Evanescence has partnered with PLUS1 so that $1/£1/€1 from every ticket sold will support organizations providing humanitarian aid and medical relief to those in need around the world. Additionally, Head Count, a non-profit/non-partisan entity will be on site at most of the band’s US concerts to register new voters and to instruct previously-registered voters how to check their registration status to ensure it is still valid.
