Korn forced to reschedule several shows: Frontman Jonathan Davis officially tests positive for COVID-19

US nu-metal legends Korn have been forced to reschedule more shows after their vocalist Jonathan Davis tested positive for COVID-19. The band had been out touring with Staind and more on a summer run.

You can read the band’s official statement about postponing the shows below:

“We really appreciate your patience as we work out the next steps for our tour. On Saturday, we received the unfortunate news that Jonathan tested positive for Covid, and needless to say, we had to postpone the show last minute.

As a result of his positive test, we also need to reschedule the next handful of shows. As always, our primary goal is to ensure the safety of everyone involved, so this is something that has to be done.

Jonathan’s spirits are high, and he’s resting and recovering now. We’re as disappointed as you are about the circumstances, but we’ll get through it though, and we can’t wait to see you once we’re back, firing on all cylinders once again.
We thank you all for your love and support!
