A truly defining artist in the Rock pantheon, Alice Cooper changed the way that rock music sounded and looked – forever – and sold over 50 million albums along the way. His incredible career  – both with the original band and as a solo artist – has seen him pushing the boundaries of what is possible, both with the music and also the truly legendary live shows. He drew together music, art and theatre and created something unique and timeless. A seminal force within the rock world, Alice Cooper is a pioneer, an icon, a profound influence on everything that followed in his wake, but first and foremost an entertainer.
 
With a catalog that spans seven (!) decades, Alice Cooper’s timeless calling cards include the albums that catapulted him to superstardom with the original Alice Cooper group, like ‘School’s Out’ and ‘Billion Dollar Babies’ in the early 70s. And then, going solo, an artist that constantly evolved, creating ‘Welcome To My Nightmare’ in 1975, his first record as a solo artist, the path on which he has continued to this day, including his 1989 smash hit album ‘Trash’ – featuring the mega-hit ‘Poison.’  Alice Cooper has continued to redefine the world in which he operates. 2023 saw him return to the album charts with ‘Road,’ repeating the 2021 success of the ‘Detroit Stories’ album as well as 2017’s ‘Paranormal.’
 
While creating a visual and sonic template that immediately and permanently sets him apart from his peers, the ever-changing Alice Cooper defies definition. “Starring Alice Cooper” celebrates the talent, and the life, of a true one-of-a-kind icon.
