The band will also be heading to Madrid for the Mad Cool Festival. “It took walking away from everything to find a lot more clarity and happiness,” said Reynolds in a statement.

Though Imagine Dragons have been prepping their new album, they’ve also been releasing a slew of new music in addition to announcing a number of festival dates. As their percussion-heavy sound shifted more toward radio-friendly, stadium-ready anthems, they secured worldwide favor with 2017's Grammy-nominated Evolve, which delivered a trio of multi-platinum singles in "Believer," "Thunder," and "Whatever It Takes." Heading into the next decade, the band continued to mature with the Rick Rubin-produced Mercury. Winning their first Grammy Award in 2014 for the diamond-certified global smash "Radioactive" from their debut album, Night Visions, Imagine Dragons remained near the top of the charts for much of the 2010s, topping the Billboard 200 with 2015's Smoke + Mirrors.
Rising from the Nevada desert in the late 2000s, rock outfit Imagine Dragons quickly became one of the most popular American bands of the 2010s, with their blend of arena rock energy and catchy pop choruses dominating radio airplay.
