Disturbed Announces the Highly Anticipated Evolution World Tour

Kansas City, Mo. (Oct. 18, 2018) – Two-time GRAMMY® Award nominees DISTURBED have announced that they will hit the road with Three Days Grace for the Evolution World Tour, an extensive international arena tour that visits T-Mobile Center on Wednesday, Jan. 23.  

Disturbed, vocalist David Draiman, guitarist Dan Donegan, drummer Mike Wengren and bassist John Moyer, is touring in support of their new album Evolution.  The lead single “Are You Ready,” hit No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks Chart and has maintained that position for four consecutive weeks. The song, which is the band’s 12th No. 1 single and the fastest chart-climber of their career, has over 5 million Spotify streams and a companion video with more than 5 million YouTube views. 

Evolution has been drawing rave reviews from fans and critics alike, with Billboard declaring it, “their most diverse album ever and one of their best, on par with their 2002 hit album Believe.” Classic Rock wrote, “the title says it all…the band have embraced their own instincts, and as a result their credibility has soared on arguably their most convincing album since 2000’s The Sickness.” The Chicago Sun-Times said, “Evolution takes some of the biggest leaps of Disturbed’s career, with the unpredictability in David Draiman’s vocals, Mike Wengren’s drumming patterns, Dan Donegan’s dimensional guitar work and John Moyer’s low-down bass lines fully embodying the album’s title.” Music Week proclaimed, “Disturbed are ready to go stratospheric on their new album Evolution,” Metal Hammer wrote, “without a doubt the most diverse record in Disturbed’s catalogue,” and Power Play gave it a 10-star review, gushing, “Disturbed have evolved into a superbly mature rock act, who, with this album, fully transcend from pure metal into pure greatness. This is a career-defining release. Nothing less.”

Disturbed recorded Evolution in Vegas with Kevin Churko, who produced their previous release, 2015’s Immortalized. That album became the band’s fifth consecutive #1 debut on the Billboard Top 200, earned a platinum certification, and yielded the triple-platinum crossover smash “The Sound of Silence.” The latter earned a GRAMMY® nod for “Best Rock Performance.” Additionally, the band took home “Best Rock Artist” at the iHeartRadioMusic Awards and received acclaim from The Wall Street Journal, New York Times, USA Today, and more.

The Evolution World Tour will see the band playing an exhilarating mix of classic hits like “Down With The Sickness,” Inside The Fire” and “The Sound Of Silence” along with new tracks such as “Are You Ready” and the recently released “A Reason To Fight.”

The tour announcement follows last week’s intimate hometown show at Chicago’s Vic Theatre and this past weekend’s set at the Austin City Limits Music Festival on a bill that featured Metallica, Lil Wayne, Justice and more.

On Oct. 23 and 24, Disturbed will partner with the USO to perform for the Airmen at Creech and Nellis Air Force Bases in Indian Springs and Las Vegas, respectively.  In addition to the performances, the band will take part in USO morale engagements to visit Airmen where they work and learn more about the important missions at each base.

Citi cardmembers will have access to purchase U.S. presale tickets beginning Monday, Oct. 22 at 10 a.m. local time until Thursday, Oct. 25 at 10 p.m. local time through Citi’s Private Pass program.

Tickets for the Evolution World Tour stop in Kansas City go on sale Friday, Oct. 26 at 10 a.m. at t-mobilecenter.com, Price Chopper Box Office at T-Mobile Center or by phone at 888.929.7849.
