Toni Cornell

Toni Cornell (born September 18, 2004) is an American singer, songwriter, and philanthropist. She first gained public attention in 2015 with a duet performance of Bob Marley's "Redemption Song" with her father, Chris Cornell, the lead vocalist of Temple of the Dog, Soundgarden, and Audioslave, at The Beacon Theatre. In 2019, she released her debut single, “Far Away Places”, which she wrote at age 12 and was produced by her father. In addition to her musical work, Cornell is involved in numerous philanthropic endeavors. She co-founded the "STOP THE STIGMA" initiative in partnership with the Addiction Policy Forum and the Chris and Vicky Cornell Foundation, which focuses on reducing the stigma associated with addiction and mental health. Following her father's death in 2017, Cornell performed Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" with OneRepublic on Good Morning America, a tribute that received widespread media coverage. Cornell has since appeared on major platforms such as The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and The Late Late Show with James Corden, where she performed tributes to her father and demonstrated her own musical style. Her rendition of Prince's "Nothing Compares 2 U" has been streamed widely and raised funds for various charities, including the International Rescue Committee. In 2022, she became the youngest ambassador for the International Rescue Committee, where she advocates for refugee support and international aid efforts.
