Johnny Depp To Perform Concerts With Alice Cooper, Joe Perry
Johnny Depp is set to perform live with Alice Cooper and Joe Perry as the musical group Hollywood Vampires.
The band on Wednesday announced shows scheduled for Sept. 16 and 17 at The Roxy in West Hollywood, California. Tickets go on sale Friday.
The trio is based off Cooper’s 1970s drinking club, the Hollywood Vampires, which included John Lennon, Harry Nilsson and Micky Dolenz.
The group will release a self-titled album Sept. 11 that includes collaborations with Paul McCartney, Dave Grohl, Joe Walsh, Slash, Brian Johnson and others. Depp plays guitar throughout the album and sings background on some of the tracks.
