It’s been a decade since Hollywood Vampires first came together — and they’re still raising hell on stage. Formed in 2015, the band bonded over a shared love of their favourite songs and a desire to celebrate their ‘dead, drunk friends’ by playing the music of rock’s fallen heroes. Named after Alice Cooper’s 1970s drinking club, which included the likes of John Lennon, Keith Moon and Mickey Dolenz, Hollywood Vampires quickly earned a reputation for blistering live shows - a riotous mix of original anthems and tributes to the legends who inspired them.
Their sets are a raucous celebration of rock’s greatest icons, performed alongside their own powerhouse material. Hollywood Vampires’ shows feature stone-cold classics from The Who, Led Zeppelin, David Bowie, Motörhead, The Doors, AC/DC and more, alongside hits from Alice Cooper and Aerosmith.
