![]() The story of Evanescence began with Ben Moody (guitar) and Amy Lee (vocals, piano).Ben was charmed by the singer and offered her to join the band. Evanescence grew strong in Little Rock, Arkansas as their single 'Understanding' was played on a local radio. Their first EP was released in 1998 (100 copies). A second EP also came to life but only 50 copies were released. With their first album, 'Origin' (2000), the band started to shape up well but it was only in 2003 with titles like 'Going Under' or 'My Immortal' (Daredevil original soundtrack) that they really became popular. Their first album 'Fallen' (2003)was an instant success across the world. 4 titles were played on the biggest radio networks in France and in the world! Everything was running smooth for them when guitarist Ben Moody suddenly quit in the middle of the European tour in Fall 2003! Terry Balsamo (Cold) replaced him and became the band's official guitarist in January 2004. ![]() Evanescence EP (1998)
