Korn drummer Ray Luzier tested positive for COVID: will not play the immediate tour dates, a replacement announced

Nu metal giants Korn’s new tour has suffered a number of changes. The band’s bassist Reginald “Fieldy” Arvizu announced in the summer that he was stepping down from the band due to personal problems.

Later, lead singer Jonathan Davis contracted COVID that forced the postponement of some tour dates, and shortly afterwards guitarist James “Munky” Shaffer was also infected.

Now the band’s drummer Ray Luzier says he has tested positive for COVID. Luzier will have to miss some of the tour dates in the near future. Luzier will be replaced temporarily by Aric Improta of Fever 333.
