Imagine Dragons will release their third album, Evolve, on June 23. 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."
"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 26 in Phoenix, AZ, with Grouplove and K.Flay providing support.

In addition, Imagine Dragons will perform at the 2017 Billboard Music Awards, which will broadcast live from the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on Sunday, May 21st, at 8 pm ET / 5 pm PT on ABC.
