Multi-Grammy Award winning, Golden Globe nominated and acclaimed singer songwriter Chris Cornell has announced plans to release a brand new solo studio album, HIGHER TRUTH. The album, produced by Brendan O’Brien (Bruce Springsteen, Pearl Jam, Neil Young), will release on September 18th. The new album expresses Cornell’s continuing evolution as a songwriter, lyricist and musical craftsman, telling human stories which resonate across genre barriers.
A North American acoustic tour kicks off at the historic Walt Disney Concert Hall on September 20th with Cornell’s first Los Angeles show since 2011. The multi-city trek will also include stops in Chicago, New York and Austin. The tour will give fans the chance to see the iconic rocker perform in an unplugged, up close and personal setting and will include songs spanning his entire career as well as new material from HIGHER TRUTH.
