Rock Star

       In the masculine universe

of rock, singer-songwriter Amy Lee fits right in. She brings 

       her goth girl self to the process

of composing and to the recording studio, no questions 

       asked. The co-founder and lead vocalist

for

       and sheer determination push through a downpour of adrenaline-amped guitar riffs

5     with her soothing, classically trained

piano stylings.

       Evanescence brings to the forefront heart-pounding musical compositions fronted by  

       Lee’s supernatural yet reality-crashing vocals. With the debut

of their album,

       Door

, Lee views the journey

that led her to this point of self-realization. In the world of

10   musical “geniuses”, Lee stands out, simply

because she realizes that it’s worth going 

       on your own. Her mantra: Trust

yourself. Believe in yourself.

       In

keeping with their tradition of supreme independence, the Little Rock, Arkansas,

band didn’t follow the tried and tired route to

becoming a stadium pleaser

15   back then 14-year-old Lee and former co-founder Ben Moody paired up and

focused 

       their energies on creating a new sound.

They decided to go on their

own and build

their 

       band up slowly and fiercely.

       Fate didn’t come knocking, but rather

it practically blew the door o

20   spring of

2003 when

       more than 14 million albums globally, and was certified gold or platinum in over 35 

       countries. And in 2004, Evanescence

was

nominated for five Grammy Awards. They’ve 

       got two, including the biggie, Best New Artist.

25   And the Grammy experience? “It feels like you are in high school collecting

all of your

       awards at the end of the year,” Lee laughs. “I really appreciate those who took the time

       to understand our sound. I was stoked.” When she heard their name called, “I didn’t 

       expect it,” Lee remembers. “I had my shoes

o

30   Armed with

their second album

and its first

single, with the title, “

       Sober

,” Lee talks

about her natural

growth as a female

artist and coming

to terms with 

       her

artistic freedom. “I didn’t want to make the same album twice. Now I was allowed 

       to grow and that gave me

confidence as an artist.”

35   Now, with The Open Door

, Lee, at the ripe age of 24, is

a competent artist who knows 

       exactly what she wants. And that is her advice for women trying to break into the biz,

       “You have to feel what is right in your heart.

If someone is telling you to do something 

       just because it’s good

for business, it’s a lie. Just trust yourself;

it may take longer, but

       not

everybody knows what they are talking

about.”
