Omnibus Presents the Story of Evanescence

Omnibus Presents the Story of Evanescence by Moore, Simon. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780825629945.

Here is the full story of the meteoric rise of Evanescence, whose unique sound has rejuvenated a music scene overrun with manufactured pop and male-dominated rock. Against all odds, the band’s creative brand of music made up of soaring female vocals, hard-hitting guitar, and classically trained piano magically conjured up multi-platinum album sales, two Grammys, and a devoted worldwide fan base. This first biography explores the teenage songwriting partnership forged by lead singer Amy Lee and guitarist Ben Moody in Little Rock, Arkansas, and how they realized their musical vision years later with the major-label release Fallen. The instant success of "Bring Me to Life," the first of many chart-topping hits, set the band on a relentless concert trek around the globe. Details Evanescence’s strong recovery from the abrupt departure of co-founder Moody mid-tour and covers the band’s future plans.
