UNCASVILLE, CT (February 10, 2025) –– Revered Rock legend Alice Cooper is making his way to Mohegan Sun Arena when the icon behind hits such as “School’s Out,” “Welcome to My Nightmare,” “Billion Dollar Babies,” “Feed My Frankenstein,” and “No More Mr. Nice Guy” take the stage on Friday, May 23rd. The extraordinary live performance kicks off at 8:00pm.
Tickets to see Cooper live in concert go on sale Friday, February 14th at 10:00am via Ticketmaster.com. Rock fans can also purchase tickets at the Mohegan Sun Box Office beginning on Saturday, February 15th, subject to availability.
Alice Cooper pioneered a grandly theatrical brand of hard rock that was designed to shock. Drawing equally from horror movies, vaudeville, and garage rock, the group created a stage show that featured electric chairs, guillotines, fake blood and boa constrictors. He continues to tour regularly, performing shows worldwide with the dark and horror-themed theatrics that he’s best known for.
Having finally gotten back out on the concert trail in 2021-2022, Alice insists he’s still motivated to continue touring and recording albums, as well as making time for other projects, including most recently, Alice’s widely praised 2018 performance as King Herod in NBC-TV’s live production of Jesus Chris Superstar on Easter Sunday.
Released in February 2021, his latest album Detroit Stories, (produced again by Bob Ezrin) is inspired by the Garage Rock music of Detroit in the late Sixties, including several classic covers of Detroit hits from that era, recorded in Detroit with all Detroit musicians. It entered Billboard’s album sales chart at #1 the week of release, and also charted high upon release on the album charts in the UK, Germany, Australiia, Sweden and other countries.
Alice’s solo career skyrocketed in the late 1970’s, with a succession of hit singles, including “You & Me,” and classic albums, including Lace And Whiskey and From The Inside, and bigger and even more elaborate concert tours.
Twenty-plus years into the new millennium, Cooper continues to be very productive and busy, writing, recording and releasing the albums Brutal Planet, Dragon Town, The Eyes of Alice Cooper, Dirty Diamonds, Along Came a Spider, Welcome 2 My Nightmare, 2017’s Paranormal, and 2018’s Live at L’Olympia Paris, plus Old School 1964-1974, a limited edition box set celebrating the original band.
With his influence on Rock & Roll and popular culture long since acknowledged, there is little that Alice Cooper hasn’t achieved in his remarkable career, including platinum albums, sold-out tours and any number of honors and career achievement awards.
His latest album, “Road,” (produced again by Bob Ezrin), released in 2023, was co-written with, and recorded with, his longtime touring band, which features bassist Chuck Garric, drummer Glen Sobel, and guitarists Ryan Roxie, Tommy Henriksen and Nita Strauss.
As if that wasn’t enough, “Alice’s Attic,” Alice’s nightly radio show, continues to air on radio stations in the USA, Australia, and Germany. The show features his favorite classic rock songs along with his insider anecdotes about many of the artists.
