Evanescence Enlist Papa Roach’s Jacoby Shaddix On “Bring Me To Life”

Evanescence Papa Roach

Evanescence delivered an awe-inspiring performance at Germany’s Rock im Park and Rock am Ring festivals this past weekend, leaving no doubt about their ability to captivate a crowd. The seasoned alt-rock nu-metal group brought their performance to life—pun certainly intended—with a sensational 16-song set, which included the likes of “Going Under,” “Call Me When You’re Sober,” “My Immortal,” and plenty more.

During their June 3 performance at Rock am Ring, Evanescence pleasantly surprised fans by inviting Jacoby Shaddix, the vocalist of Papa Roach, to join them on stage for the closing number of their set: their 2003 smash hit single, “Bring Me To Life.” The iconic track, which found massive success from the group’s debut album Fallen, was originally recorded with Paul McCoy of 12 Stones providing the rap-sing verses that intertwined with the magnetic vocal prowess of Evanescence‘s frontwoman, Amy Lee.
