|}Ben Moody (born January 22, 1981, in Little Rock, Arkansas as Ben Robert Moody III) was formerly the lead guitarist for Evanescence from 1996 to 2003. It all started when he saw Amy playing Meatloaf's I Would Do Anything For Love at a Christian youth summer camp. The two became friends, and the rest is rock music history. Wrote many of the most popular Evanescence songs including My Immortal. His father is a prominent photographer in the Little Rock area.
Ben left the band in October 22th, 2003, before a Berlin concert, after creative differences caused a rift between he and Amy. The two are reported to have been in a relationship sometime in the past, and this relationship is actually what inspired most of the songs in Evanescence's pre-2003 repertoire. In the past, Amy would only say that the songs were about an "abusive relationship" with an un-named person.
He started an indipendent cinema label, called Makeshift Films, and an indipendent music label, called FNR records, producing Hana Pestle, an alternative rock/acoustic artist. For this label Ben produced his solo works too: the Mutiny Bootleg EP and All For This.
In 2009 it was announced Ben Moody would be joining ex-Evanescence members John LeCrompt and Rocky Gray along with former American Idol contestant Carly Smithson (Vocals) and bass player Marty O'Brien to form We Are The Fallen. The group released their debut album "Tear The World Down" on May 11, 2010.
