Chris Cornell Brings Songbook To Europe – update

Grunge icon Chris Cornell is excited to announce European Songbook dates this Summer. Fans in the UK and across Europe will get the chance to see Chris perform unplugged, up close and personal.

The much-anticipated acoustic Songbook tour provides fans with an intimate “Storytellers” like setting where Cornell easily interacts with his audience and shares insights about his music. Cornell states, “Songbook was created for my fans.”

The tour will kick off in Manchester, UK on 16 June and highlights Chris Cornell's entire catalogue, including Soundgarden, Audioslave and Temple of the Dog. Familiar songs emerge in a new context that showcases the depth and breadth of Chris Cornell's songwriting talents.

Chris Cornell released Songbook last year to wide critical acclaim. The album includes the song “The Keeper” which was nominated for a Golden Globe award in 2012.
