Alice Cooper Returns to the Stage with Fresh Blood: Meet Anna Cara!

By Jason
The master of shock rock gears up for a monstrous tour as a new axe wielder joins the ranks.

The legendary Alice Cooper, a titan of theatrical rock, is set to unleash his signature blend of horror and glam this October and November on the electrifying 'Alice's Attic' tour. With a career that has spanned decades, Cooper continues to captivate audiences, drawing inspiration from the darkest corners of horror cinema and the raw energy of garage rock. This fall leg promises to be an unforgettable spectacle, with Cooper hitting new venues across the U.S.

Kicking off on October 27 in Clearwater, Florida, the tour will snake its way through a series of cities before culminating in a grand finale on November 21 in Reno, Nevada. Fans can expect a wickedly good time as they experience the new production that made its debut during Cooper's co-headlining tour with the metal gods, JUDAS PRIEST. The anticipation is palpable, with fans eager to witness the theatrics that only Alice can deliver.

In a twist that has the metal community buzzing, Cooper has enlisted British guitarist Anna Cara to step into the spotlight in place of Nita Strauss, who is taking a break to welcome her first child. Anna, hailing from Newcastle, England, is a force to be reckoned with, having previously collaborated with rock legends like Marc Storace of KROKUS and Tommy Henriksen. This young shredder's live debut with Cooper at the 'Welcome To Our Nightmare' shows in Las Vegas left fans clamoring for more.

Alice himself has high praise for Anna, stating, "Nita found a brilliant British female guitarist to fill in for her while she is on maternity leave. Anna Cara is a beautiful dynamic shredder in the vein of Nita but with a style of her own." Anna has expressed her excitement, calling this opportunity a dream come true, and she's ready to show the world what she can do. Nita Strauss, who has been a crucial part of Cooper's band since 2014, is equally supportive, lauding Anna's talent and precision.

As Alice Cooper gears up for another monumental tour, fans can rest assured that the legacy of shock rock is in good hands. With Anna Cara taking the stage, the show promises to deliver the high voltage entertainment that audiences have come to expect from the master of macabre. Prepare yourselves, metalheads—this is one tour you won't want to miss!
