With guitarist Nita Strauss having recently exited Alice Cooper‘s band, the shock-rocker welcomes back Kane Roberts! Fans of Alice Cooper know Roberts for his work on Constrictor (1986) and Raise Your Fist and Yell (1987). News of Roberts rejoining Alice’s band comes from Alice himself (via Instagram). Per a caption associated with this post, Alice wrote:
“I’m looking forward to welcoming back Kane Roberts for our shows in September and October. We’ve been friends all this time, and he’s always been one of my favorite guitarists. He’s bringing more muscle to the Detroit Muscle Tour. We’ve always had a swinging door policy where players can come and go, so it’s very exciting to get back on stage with Kane. The fans are in for a real treat at these shows. It’s gonna be a blast. Kane Roberts, Ryan Roxie, and Tommy Henriksen on guitars? Hell yeah!”
