I Am The Highway: A Tribute to Chris Cornell will feature members of Cornell-affiliated bands like Soundgarden, Audioslave and Temple of the Dog along with members of Foo Fighters and Metallica. It will take place on January 16, 2019 at the Forum in Los Angeles.

Hosted by Jimmy Kimmel, proceeds from the event will go to benefit the Chris and Vicky Cornell Foundation and the Epidermolysis Bullosa Medical Research Foundation.

Tickets go on sale Friday, November 16 and will include a copy of Cornell’s self-titled album which will arrive on the same day and contain unreleased material.
