Amy Lee, the iconic voice behind Evanescence, has announced two deeply personal and exclusive shows as part of her upcoming solo tour—one in Riverside, California, where she was born, and the other in Little Rock, Arkansas, the city where Evanescence was formed and her career took flight.
Titled “From Riverside to Rock: A Journey Home,” this two-city tour is more than a performance—it’s a tribute to Amy’s roots, milestones, and the transformative path that shaped her both as an artist and a woman.
The first show will take place on October 4, 2025, at the historic Fox Performing Arts Center in Riverside, California. Just over a week later, she’ll return to Little Rock on October 12, 2025, performing at the elegant Robinson Center, where she and her band once rehearsed, dreamed, and began their journey to global fame.
In a heartfelt statement, Lee shared the emotional significance of these cities:
“Riverside is where I opened my eyes to the world, and Little Rock is where I found my voice. These two places are stitched into every note I sing. Going back isn’t just nostalgic—it’s healing, it’s grounding. I can’t wait to share this with the people who’ve been part of the story from the beginning.”
Fans can expect a stripped-down, piano-driven performance unlike any of her previous tours. The setlist will span her entire career—from the haunting ballads of Fallen to emotionally rich selections from her solo projects and soundtracks. The shows promise a raw, intimate experience with Amy at the center—no flashing lights, just music, memory, and connection.
The tour also includes a special feature: Amy will share personal stories behind the songs, reflecting on her childhood in Riverside and the creative genesis of Evanescence in Little Rock. Both venues were carefully chosen for their acoustics and ambiance, creating the perfect backdrop for an immersive and introspective night of music.
Limited VIP packages will be available, offering fans a chance to attend soundcheck, receive exclusive tour merchandise, and participate in a Q&A session with Amy Lee herself.
Tickets go on sale June 28, 2025, and are expected to sell out quickly given the exclusivity and emotional weight of these performances.
From Riverside to Rock: A Journey Home is not just a concert—it’s a rare and moving chance to see Amy Lee reconnect with the places that shaped her soul, voice, and legacy.
