As he preps for the release of his first solo record, Mike Shinoda has announced a string of tour dates for this summer and fall that encompass many different parts of the world as reported by The PRP. This will be the first time that Shinoda has taken his solo work on the road for an extended period, and it comes just after he recently took the stage as a solo artist for the first time. His new album Post Traumatic will be dropping on June 15th, and it will feature some amazing guest performances from the likes of Machine Gun Kelley, K. Flay, and Chino Moreno of the Deftones. Shinoda has been dropping captivating music videos and singles over the past couple of months, slowly building up the hype and anticipation for the release of his first solo album.

As the main songwriter and rapper for Linkin Park, Shinoda became one of the most influential and successful musicians in the world as his band rocketed to global fame after the release of their groundbreaking debut record Hybrid Theory. They maintained their presence as one of the top groups in the world until the tragic death of lead singer Chester Bennington last year. Since that tragedy, Shinoda has been hard at work in the studio crafting new music, with Post Traumatic shaping up to be one of the most highly anticipated releases of the year.
