Amy Lee says that EVANESCENCE is working on a "unique" new project that breaks "new territory" for the band.

EVANESCENCE debuted a previously unheard song called "Take Cover" during its North American tour last fall.

Lee released a new solo single, called "Love Exists", on February 10 via iTunes, Amazon, Google Play and all the usual streaming services.
