Evanescence put out the album 'Sanctuary' in June. On the North American leg of its 2026 world tour, the band also raised almost a quarter million dollars for two charities.
'Sanctuary' is the band's sixth studio album and its first since 2021's 'The Bitter Truth.' The band launched a massive 2026 world tour on June 11 in support of the record.
'Who Will You Follow,' the album's second single, turned into the fastest-rising rock radio single of the band's career. It cracked the Top 10 at U.S. rock radio in under four weeks. The song hit No. 1 on Billboard's U.S. and Canadian Mainstream Rock charts and on the Billboard Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart, and it gave the band its first No. 1 on Billboard's Hot Hard Rock Songs chart.
September brought the official video for 'Tell Me When You've Had Enough.' A double vinyl edition of the album came out on September 4.
To celebrate the release of 'Sanctuary,' Evanescence is extending its world tour with a lap down under in the early stages of 2027. Produced by Live Nation, the arena tour of Australia and New Zealand gets going Friday, March 5 at Perth's RAC Arena, then heads east for dates in Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane, and wraps up March 20 at Auckland's Spark Arena.
