Linkin Park announce NEW lead singer Emily Armstrong and world tour - seven years after Chester Bennington's suicide
Linkin Park made a significant announcement on Thursday, introducing Emily Armstrong as their new lead vocalist and revealing plans for a world tour and a new album.
The band — comprised of Mike Shinoda, 47, Brad Delson, 46, and Dave Farrell, 47, — thrilled fans as they revealed that the Dead Sara rocker, 38, will be their new vocalist during a live performance event. According to a press release, Shinoda, Delson, Farrell and Hahn 'quietly began meeting up again in recent years' and 'rather than "trying to restart the band,"' they worked with numerous musicians and 'found a special kinship with Armstong and Brittain.' They went on to maintain their staying power throughout the years, despite taking hiatuses to work on side projects, with all five of their remaining albums that were released, including One More Light (2017), which dropped two months before Bennington's death by suicide on July 20, 2017.
