Orianthi, who played guitar in Alice Cooper's band from 2011 until 2014, is to rejoin the shock-rocker's band for his upcoming Too Close For Comfort tour. She's filling in for her own replacement, Nita Strauss, who is committed to a run of solo dates.
"When Orianthi moved on to pursue her own career in 2014, we were lucky to find Nita," says Cooper. "Over the past decade, Nita, Chuck [Garric], and Tommy [Henriksen] have also launched their own projects, and we always try to coordinate our schedule so we can keep the band together, but 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."
