Chris Cornell coming to the Carpenter Theatre

by | Mar 7, 2016 | MUSIC

We can barely contain our excitement!

We can barely contain our excitement! Soundgarden frontman Chris Cornell has just announced a huge world tour and he thought to include little old Richmond in it!

In promoting his latest solo album Higher Truth which the rock musician dropped in September, Cornell will hit the road with stops in Iceland, Italy, Ireland, and France before coming to the US in June.

The singer-songwriter will come to the Carpenter Theatre at Richmond Centerstage (or Dominion Arts Center is what we’re calling it now) Wed. June 22. His tour will end in July.

Check out all the stops here and tickets for the Richmond show go on sale March 11 at 10 am.
