Corey Taylor Plans to Spend All of 2024 Touring His Solo Record
Get ready for a lot more Corey Taylor thoughts, because the Slipknot and Stone Sour frontman is preparing to spending a lot of time on the road promoting his upcoming solo record, CMF2. Appearing on Eddie Trunk’s podcast, the two spoke about his touring with Slipknot, which led into a conversation about Taylor’s plans for his solo band.
“I know [Slipknot have] a big run in South America, Latin America coming up in October/November. That hasn’t been announced yet, but it’s about two weeks. So we’re kind of flying down, doing the thing, getting back out. But other than that, we’re kind of winding it down. We’ll do a handful of things next year, but for the most part for the rest of this year and pretty much all of next year, it’s gonna be all [touring in support of] ‘CMF2’. We’re starting to get offers for Japan and Australia, we’re getting offers for Europe and the U.K. ‘Beyond’ is doing really well in South America right now. It’s fifth most downloaded in Brazil, which is crazy. So it’s gonna be a world run that’s long overdue. ‘Cause we didn’t get to do really anything on the first album, ’cause obviously there was a lockdown. So we’re really looking forward to that. It’s gonna be pretty rad.”
Taylor recently dropped the single “Beyond” and has already announced tour dates for 2023.
