Overview
- Alice Cooper introduced 22-year-old British guitarist Anna Cara, with her Las Vegas debut running Thursday through Saturday at Criss Angel's Planet Hollywood theater.
- Cara steps in while longtime guitarist Nita Strauss takes maternity leave after announcing plans to welcome her first child this summer.
- Cooper called Cara a dynamic shredder with her own style, and Strauss endorsed her as a precise, soulful player who will strengthen the show.
- The lineup change preserves the "Alice's Attic" schedule, with U.S. dates April 14 to May 9, three more Las Vegas shows May 22–24, and a European run June 13 to July 12.
- Cara is a Newcastle native who built a large Instagram following and worked with Krokus singer Marc Storace, Cooper and Hollywood Vampires guitarist Tommy Henriksen, and the project Crossbone Skully.
