Early Praise for
Use My Voice
and The Bitter Truth:
“Lee can’t be silenced” – MTV
“Evanescence returns with a mission” – Billboard
“Fierce” – Marie Claire
“Evanescence is back and frontwoman Amy Lee is once again at the top of her game” – Consequence of Sound
“The renaissance of Evanescence is one of the few good things to happen in 2020 … the “Bring Me To Life” hitmakers have lost none of their edge.” – Idolator

Evanescence have released the video for Use My Voice, their new single that “captures the current socio-political zeitgeist of advocacy and activism” (MTV) – the visuals follow frontwoman Amy Lee, her bandmates, and a diverse group of citizens as they unite for change and justice.
Lee first met Howell back in 2015 when she was asked to write the end title theme for his film, Voice From The Stone, starring Emilia Clarke of Game of Thrones fame.
Beginning with Amy alone in the dark and ending in a collective light-filled demonstration as the day breaks, the video serves as a hopeful metaphor of moving from darkness into a more illuminated future by being heard.
Earlier this month, Evanescence partnered with HeadCount, one of the leading non-partisan, non-profit voter information services to help people navigate the registration and voting process by providing information on options to vote safely during COVID. Check out the Use My Voice PSA,.
And watch Amy speak with CBS This Morning’s Anthony Mason HERE about HeadCount, Use My Voice, and the process of collaborating on it with some very special guests: Lzzy Hale (also featured in the video), Taylor Momsen, Sharon den Adel (Within Temptation), Deena Jakoub (VERIDIA), Lindsey Stirling, and more, who all contribute vocals to the song.
“We are proud to stand up and join the fight against the injustice, lies and oppression that plague our country and the world. No matter who you are, what you look like, where you come from or who you love, your voice matters. We hope to shine a light in the darkness, to empower and inspire. Use your voice. Vote.” – Amy Lee
Use My Voice follows Wasted on You and The Game is Over as the third song and video to be released early from The Bitter Truth, Evanescence’s forthcoming new album, the first containing all new material in nearly a decade. The Elle, Rolling Stone, and New York Times-lauded, self-shot while-in-quarantine video for Wasted on You was recently nominated for “Best Rock” at the coming MTV Video Music Awards, and The Bitter Truth promises fans more of the heavy, vocal-driven, and expertly-arranged rock for which Evanescence is known.

About Evanescence:
Two-time GRAMMY® Award-winning Evanescence has made an impact on people around the world. The group’s 2003 landmark debut album Fallen laid the foundation; spending 43 weeks on the Billboard Top 10 and selling more than 17 million copies worldwide. Debut single and global hit Bring Me to Life, reached #5 on the Billboard Hot 100 as well as marking their first U.K. #1 hit single. The equally popular My Immortal peaked at #7 in the U.S. and U.K. Following multiple worldwide tours, The Open Door came next, which went on to sell more than five million copies followed by the self-titled Evanescence which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Charts. Evanescence lead singer-songwriter and pianist Amy Lee, bassist Tim McCord, drummer Will Hunt, lead guitarist Troy McLawhorn, and guitarist Jen Majura, went down both very new and familiar paths for their fourth and most ambitious release to date, Synthesis, in 2017. The symphonic effort scored four Billboard #1s, debuting atop the Independent, Alternative, Rock, and Classical Album Charts. Evanescence launched their worldwide Synthesis Live tour in October 2017 combining their intense live performances and timeless songwriting with a powerful live orchestra.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
