Former American Idol contestant Carly Smithson has joined on as the lead singer of a spinoff of Evanescence called The Fallen (think of it like how Creed became Alter Bridge when they ditched Scott Stapp for a different lead singer.) The Fallen is made up of Carly and three ex-Evanescence members, including Ben Moody, who actually met Carly and clicked with her instantly while she was on the Idol Tour. Once he kenw about the new project, he got in touch with Carly, who was totally on board. Ben said that even though Carly sounds (and looks) like former Evanescence lead singer Amy Lee, The Fallen is a lot more intense than his former band, which was already reeking of intensity.
Check out Carly performing Evanescence's Bring Me to Life from the Idol Tour last year below.
