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.

“Believer,” plus new songs “Thunder” and “Whatever It Takes.” Listen to

“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.

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.
