Corey Taylor has announced a run of solo shows across North America for early next year.
The Slipknot and Stone Sour frontman timed the announcement to coincide with his 50th birthday yesterday (December 8), thanking fans for their birthday wishes by revealing a month-long run of shows.
The tour will kick off on February 3 in Toronto, and will wrap up on March 3 in Omaha, Nebraska. Along the way, he’ll also make stops in Montreal, New York City, Philadelphia, Atlanta, New Orleans, and several more cities.
At his solo shows, Taylor has tended to perform a mix of his own material as well as Slipknot and Stone Sour songs.

The tour is in support of Taylor’s recent second solo album ‘CMF2’, which was released in September. In a three-star review, NME wrote: “There’s enough good stuff on here to justify the album’s existence. And if nothing else, it’s a fascinating insight into the dichotomy that drives one of the greatest bands of the 21st Century.”
Meanwhile, Taylor also recently revealed that he was working on his first film score, saying it was “something I’ve wanted to do for a very long time”.
