In a beautiful moment shared with fans, Chris Cornell‘s son Christopher and daughter Toni Cornell gave fans a heartfelt surprise.
Chris Cornell’s children performs Mazzy Star’s song
In an Instagram video posted by Chris, he picked up the guitar, and Toni delivered a tender rendition of ‘Blue Light’ by Mazzy Star.
Toni Cornell is venturing into her professional music career, continuing her dad’s legacy and building one of her own. In 2019, Cornell released her first song, “Far Away Places,” a moving ballad that she wrote, and her father produced for the film of the same name.
And her top song on Spotify is currently a cover of Sinead O’Connor’s “Nothing Compares 2 U,” also performed with her dad. Toni Cornell has released three songs over the past year which are punchy art pop rock.
Expect more music from Toni Cornell in the future, but maybe not on any set timeline, and maybe not organized in an album format just yet.
Tribute to Chris Cornell
Toni also wowed music fans with her emotional rendition of Soundgarden’s “Fell on Black Days” to honor her late father at the 2025 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony. Chris Cornell passed away in 2017. He was 52 years old.
In 2017, she had also performed a tribute to her dad and his friend Chester Bennington by singing “Hallelujah” with Ryan Tedder and OneRepublic on “Good Morning America.”
