Dayseeker have released a beautiful cover of Evanescence’s ‘My Immortal’.
The exquisite rendition of the track comes from the band’s forthcoming acoustic album ‘Replica’, which arrives digitally April 19 and physically on June 14 via Spinefarm.
‘Replica’ is the result of a specific gig in 2022, when the band’s gear overheated at Blue Ridge Rock Festival and frontman Rory Rodriguez grabbed an acoustic guitar from the van to play a five-song set on the fly.
‘Replica’ will feature stripped-down, intimate reworkings of Dayseeker favourites, providing fans the chance to listen to the band in entirely new ways, and feature a cover of the Evanescence classic.
Have a listen to the cover via the simple live video below.
Speaking about the selection of the cover, Rodriguez has said:
“‘My Immortal’ is a song I’ve loved dearly since I first heard it in high school.
“I truly always wanted to cover it but the timing didn’t feel right until we started this album. It’s easily my favorite cover we’ve ever done.”
And discussing the forthcoming ‘Replica’ album more broadly, Rodriguez has added:
“‘Replica’ is one of our favorite releases to date. It completely shows a new side to our band and the kind of music we’re capable of creating.”
Dayseeker will embark on a UK arena tour this spring with Pierce The Veil and Holding Absence before they commence an extensive and significant headline tour of the US in May, including a stop at Sick New World Festival in Las Vegas.
They then head out to Australia and New Zealand for a run of dates in July.
