Multi-platinum, Grammy Award-winning band Imagine Dragons will release their third album, Evolve, on June 23rd via KIDinaKORNER / Interscope Records. The band will also bring its electrifying live show to arenas across North America this fall with the Evolve Tour, produced by Live Nation.

The album can be purchased in a variety of formats and bundles HERE. Watch the videos for "Believer" and "Thunder" below.

"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 26th in Phoenix, AZ, with Grouplove and K.Flay providing support.  Verified pre-sale begins Monday, May 15th at 10am local time to Thursday, May 18th at 10pm local time.  Fans can register now for early access to tickets at presale.imaginedragonsmusic.com.

Formed in 2009 and featuring lead vocalist Dan Reynolds, guitarist Wayne Sermon, bassist Ben McKee, and drummer Daniel Platzman, Imagine Dragons earned a grassroots following by independently releasing a series of EPs. After Alex Da Kid signed them to his KIDinaKORNER/Interscope label, the band made its major-label debut with the release of Continued Silence, a 2012 EP featuring the 2x platinum breakthrough single "It's Time." Night Visions arrived later that year and Imagine Dragons found themselves on a skyward trajectory that saw the album debut at No. 2 on the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart and became the No. 1 album on Spotify Worldwide for 2013. Night Visions has sold over 5 million copies worldwide. The album's second single, the 9x-platinum "Radioactive,"hit No. 1 on the Billboard Rock chart and earned the band a 2014 Grammy for "Best Rock Performance." The third single, "Demons," hit No. 1 at Alternative and Top 40 radio, and has sold 3.9 million copies in the U.S. Imagine Dragons' platinum-selling second album, Smoke + Mirrors, debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top 200 album chart and has sold 1.1 million copies worldwide. The band's third album, Evolve is due June 23rd.
