The Hollywood Bowl concert was a prime example of the evolving world of music, where artists in different genres come together to create remarkable moments. Halsey’s alternative pop finds away to combine with Evanescence’s evening of gothic rock and The Warning’s hard rock energy created a convergence of experience that could be enjoyed by many types of fans.
The partnership between Halsey and Amy Lee marks a personal milestone for Halsey, who has admired Evanescence since childhood. While promoting her 2024 album, “The Great Impersonator,” Halsey honored her influences by dressing as 18 of her musical heroes, including recreating the iconic “Fallen” album cover by Evanescence. Referring to Amy Lee as her “OG dark rock queen,” Halsey even shared a nostalgic childhood photo featuring her wearing an Evanescence t-shirt, noting affectionately, “I wore that shirt into the ground.”
Directed by Len Wiseman and produced by Chad Stahelski of the original John Wick films, “Ballerina” also stars Anjelica Huston, Gabriel Byrne, Lance Reddick, Catalina Sandino Moreno, Norman Reedus, Ian McShane, and Keanu Reeves alongside Ana de Armas.
Evanescence’s contribution to “Ballerina” follows their recent release, “Afterlife,” from the Netflix series “Devil May Cry,” which premiered live for the first time during their electrifying Hollywood Bowl performance. [Source]
