The recording of “1000 Years” is a new studio version spawned by Amy Lee’s surprise onstage appearance alongside Bush at Nashville’s historic Ryman Auditorium during their hugely successful 2023 headlining tour. The meditative and moving ballad expertly showcases Lee and Rossdale’s vocal chemistry and provides yet another highlight to the already-renowned album. 

Lee stated: “Gavin invited me to get up onstage for a song and sent me a link to “1000 years”. “It was just one of those things where I had the basics of the part in my head the first time I listened to it. It is so natural, I loved it immediately, it’s haunting. I think sometimes things are just meant to be and all you have to do is kind of let them happen. I’m so happy Bush liked it enough to ask me to record! I’ve loved their music since I was first dreaming of being in a band myself. So this is literally a dream come true for me".

Fresh off of their recent concert run with fellow rock legends Breaking Benjamin, Bush will be on the road once again this summer with a special list of one-off dates including MainStage appearances at top rock festivals Incarceration and Rocklahoma, and select Fair and headline shows including being added to the list of All Star artists taking part in the super exclusive grand opening of The Atlantis in D.C. which was opened this week by none other than the Foo Fighters.

ABOUT BUSH:

After three decades, well over 20 million records sold, a GRAMMY® Award nomination, 1 billion streams, and a procession of #1 hits, BUSH stand tall as rock outliers whose imprint only widens as the years pass. Turn on rock radio, and it won’t be long before you hear “Glycerine” or “Machinehead.” On the big screen, their music courses through blockbuster franchises such as John Wick. On the road, they regularly pack amphitheaters and ignite festival stages. In 1994, the group delivered their seminal debut, Sixteen Stone. It notably achieved a six-times platinum certification, remaining a pillar of modern rock. Rolling Stone cited it among “1994: The 40 Best Records From Mainstream Alternative’s Greatest Year,”while Stereogum exclaimed, “It feels like music untethered from time, separate from its history.” The triple-platinum follow-up, Razorblade Suitcase, bowed at #1 on the Billboard Top 200 and boasted “Swallowed,” which garnered a GRAMMY® Award nomination in the category of “Best Hard Rock Performance.” Their catalog spans the platinum The Science of Things [1999] through Black and White Rainbows [2017], and The Kingdom [2020], which includes acclaimed tracks “Flowers On A Grave” and “Bullet Holes.” As indefatigable as ever, they’re still here too, which brings us to their latest ninth full-length offering, The Art of Survival [BMG]. The twelve tracks on the album aren’t just the sound of a band surviving though; they’re the sound of a band bucking trends, breaking ground, and besting even their most celebrated canon.Their lead single off the album “More Than Machines,” is the band’s 7th #1 single at radio. Thus far, they have notched 24 straight Top 40 hits on the Modern Rock and Mainstream Rock charts.
