Video footage of new EVANESCENCE guitarist Jen Majura (EQUIBLIBRIUM, KNORKATOR) playing the band’s song “Call Me When You’re Sober” can be seen above.

Majura recently told EMP Rock Invasion about how she landed the EVANESCENCE gig: “I have no idea. [Laughs] No, seriously… My name was somehow recommended by a sweet friend of mine, Alex Skolnick of TESTAMENT, and Dave Eggar — he’s also known as a very good cellist, and he’s a musician working in New York. And all of a sudden, there was this e-mail popping up: ‘Are you interested in joining…?’ And I was, like, ‘What the fuck?’ So I stopped breathing until my face turned kind of blue. And then afterwards, I was, like, ‘Okay, I’ve gotta read it again.’ Three days later, I found myself suddenly on an airplane, flying over to New York to meet Amy Lee. And we had some very, very cool talks. She’s an awesome person. She’s a very, very great musician. And so I found myself suddenly inside of his empire called EVANESCENCE“.

EVANESCENCE re-emerged after a three-year hiatus with select, intimate shows in November in Nashville, Dallas and Los Angeles. The influential, Grammy-winning band also played at Ozzfest Japan, the first major international music festival to ever travel to Japan.
