Chris Cornell has announced the UK leg of his Songbook tour.
The Soundgarden frontman plays his first headline UK dates in over three years with a series of intimate unplugged shows this summer.
Cornell will play tracks from across his entire career, including those originally recorded with Soundgarden, Audioslave and Temple of the Dog.
Tickets are priced from £27.50 to £35 and go on sale this Friday, February 24 at 10am.

The full tour dates are as follows:

• June 16 - Manchester Lowry
• June 18 - London Palladium
• June 19 - Birmingham Symphony Hall
• June 20 - Newcastle City Hall

After their split in 2007, Cornell confirmed Soundgarden's reunion two years ago.
He had previously denied rumours that he was to join Led Zeppelin as a replacement for Robert Plant.
Between 2001 and 2007, Cornell fronted Audioslave, a band consisting of then-ex Rage Against the Machine stars Tom Morello, Tim Commerford and Brad Wilk
Cornell fronted Temple of the Dog between 1990 and 1992 and the band have played a handful of reunion performances over the past decade.
Cornell last year said that Soundgarden's comeback album, their first since 1996's Down on the Upside, would be very diverse.

Anyone got a pre-sale password for this? I joined the mailing list this morning, but I don't know if the passwords have already been sent out.

Anyone going to this next week? June 13th in the Olympia.

Do you know will I be allowed take a Nikon D40 in, or would I be stopped with it? I am sitting very near the stage so would love to get some good shots.

Cornell has a sponsorship deal with Cannon, so no Nikons will be allowed in, also no Slash tshirts...
