Alice Cooper has announced that guitarist Orianthi will join his band for shows from January 31 through February 16. He will fill in for Nita Strauss, who unfortunately has conflicting obligations of her own.
Orianthi toured with Alice from 2011 to 2014, along with longtime band members Chuck Garric, Glen Sobel, Tommy Henriksen, and Ryan Roxie.
Said Cooper, “When Orianthi moved on to pursue her own career in 2014, we were lucky to find Nita. Over the past decade, Nita, Chuck, and Tommy have also launched their own projects, and we always try to coordinate our schedule to keep the band together. Still, these shows came up after Nita had already committed to another tour. So I reached out to Orianthi, and thankfully she was available to jump back in, so we’re all really looking forward to doing these shows with her. I’m so fortunate to always have such great musicians to work with.”
The tour schedule for these shows is as follows.
01/31 — Augusta, GA — Bell Auditorium
02/01 — Cherokee, NC — Harrah’s Casino Resort Event Center
02/02 — Greensboro, NC — Steven Tanger Center for the Performing Arts
02/04 — Mobile, AL — Saenger Theatre
02/06 — Orlando, FL — Hard Rock
02/07 — Ft Myers, FL — Barbara Mann Performing Arts Hall
02/08 — Clearwater, FL — Coachmen Park
