Imagine Dragons To Release New Album ‘Evolve’ On June 23rd

Multi-platinum, Grammy Award-winning band Imagine Dragons will release their third album, Evolve, on June 23rd via KIDinaKORNER / Interscope Records. The band will also bring its electrifying live show to arenas across North America this fall with the Evolve Tour, produced by Live Nation.

Evolve is now available for pre-order from all participating digital retailers. Those who pre-order Evolve will receive instant downloads of the first single “Believer,” plus new songs “Thunder” and “Whatever It Takes.” Listen to “Whatever it Takes” HERE. Fans who pre-order the album on the official Imagine Dragons store shop.imaginedragonsmusic.com today through Saturday May 13th at 8am PT will be sent registration instructions and receive priority access in the Ticketmaster Verified Fan pre-sale, which begins on Monday the 15th at 10am local time. The album can be purchased in a variety of formats and bundles HERE. Watch the video for “Believer” HERE and “Thunder” HERE.

“Believer” spent six consecutive weeks at No. 1 at Alternative Radio and  broke a 13+ year record for number of spins at the format, besting the record previously held by Linkin Park’s “Faint” in 2003. TIME called “Believer” “another showstopper of an anthem,” while Entertainment Weekly noted its “thudding tribal drums, a massive shout along chorus, and a wicked bassline that’s the sonic equivalent of a slug to the gut.” Billboard called “Believer” “a whimsical-yet-authoritative anthem sure to turn even the most hesitant of optimists into a believer.”

Imagine Dragons will kick off the Evolve Tour on September 26th in Phoenix, AZ, with Grouplove and K.Flay providing support.  Verified pre-sale begins Monday, May 15th at 10am local time to Thursday, May 18th at 10pm local time.  Fans can register now for early access to tickets at presale.imaginedragonsmusic.com.

Formed in 2009 and featuring lead vocalist Dan Reynolds, guitarist Wayne Sermon, bassist Ben McKee, and drummer Daniel Platzman, Imagine Dragons earned a grassroots following by independently releasing a series of EPs. After Alex Da Kid signed them to his KIDinaKORNER/Interscope label, the band made its major-label debut with the release of Continued Silence, a 2012 EP featuring the 2x platinum breakthrough single “It’s Time.” Night Visions arrived later that year and Imagine Dragons found themselves on a skyward trajectory that saw the album debut at No. 2 on the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart and became the No. 1 album on Spotify Worldwide for 2013. Night Visions has sold over 5 million copies worldwide. The album’s second single, the 9x-platinum “Radioactive,” hit No. 1 on the Billboard Rock chart and earned the band a 2014 Grammy for “Best Rock Performance.” The third single, “Demons,” hit No. 1 at Alternative and Top 40 radio, and has sold 3.9 million copies in the U.S. Imagine Dragons’ platinum-selling second album, Smoke + Mirrors, debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top 200 album chart and has sold 1.1 million copies worldwide. The band’s third album, Evolve is due June 23rd.

The actor, just like his onscreen image, was hell-bent on getting a couple married and helped them through the most difficult situation of their lives.The family of the young couple was against the marriage. But when Vishal came to know about it, he played the role a peacemaker and convinced both the families of the couple. The friend still appreciates Vishal’s support and admires his courage. Vishal has always believed in completing love stories, be it in real life or reel life.When contacted, Vishal says, “I fondly remember that incident. I helped my friend getting married to the person he wanted to spend his life with. They are very happy now and their families who were against the marriage are also happy. I feel proud to have helped them in completing their love story. My character Bittu in Jaat Ki Jugni is also the same and I hope I can complete love stories in the show too and give a positive message to everyone.”

“I love the company of Maya and Vishu onset of Rudra Ke Rakshak” – Yash Sehgal

Produced by Contiloe Productions, the kids fantasy show Rudra Ke Rakshak on BIG Magic is engaging viewers with its spellbinding concept. The talented child artists on the show have been praised among the masses for their acting skills and finesse.Well, just like their onscreen chemistry, the child actors bond very well off-screen as well. The main protagonist Avi played by Yash Sehgal and his clan Maya and Vishu aka Mahi Milan and Mohmd Saud respectively, are best friends’ onset of the show. A source close to the production house informs us about their friendship, “The three musketeers are always seen together just like their onscreen story in the show Rudra Ke Rakshak. Over the period of time they have become really good friends and they like spending time with each other over shoot breaks. In fact they also go on outings together during their day off from shoot.”It is always great to see kids having fun while they work and the happiness adds on when you see they bond the same way off work as well. Yash Sehgal has found new best friends in Mahi and Saud, “Initially I was shy and would not talk much with my co-actors but in no time we all bonded really well resulting into best friends now. Right from studies to outings to having fun on set, we three are always seen together. I love the company of Vishu and Maya” concludes the actor.

Is this not cute! We wish they stay best friends forever. To watch the phenomenal performance of these talented bunch of actors stay tuned to Rudra Ke Rakshak every Monday to Friday at 6:30pm only on BIG Magic.
