Hollywood Vampires have confirmed UK shows for summer 2023.
The supergroup—Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry, actor and musician Johnny Depp, and shock-rock icon Alice Cooper, with guitarist Tommy Henriksen—will kick off the tour at Scarborough Open Air Theatre on July 5. They've also scheduled arena gigs in Swansea, Manchester, Birmingham Glasgow and London, where they'll play The O2.
Seether are set to provide support, joined by San Francisco band The Tubes on all dates except Scarborough. Tickets go on general sale at 10am on October 28. Vocalist Cooper, 74, commented:
"Well, it’s already been three years since the Vampires have toured because of Covid. Also, Johnny has his movies, Joe’s in Aerosmith and I’m in Alice Cooper, so we have to look at that whole thing and see when we can all get a month or two off where we can go out and tour. And, we are going to be doing that, next summer coming up, 2023. I can't wait to get back with the guys, I really love being in that band. My band is great and wonderful, but playing with the Vampires is an entirely different situation. I don’t necessarily do any theatrics at all, I’m just the lead singer, in a band, and the band just happens to be one of the best bands around! It’ll be great to see Johnny and Joe and Buck and Chris and all the guys. We’ll be rocking these places, especially the UK, I can’t wait to get to the UK! Lock your doors, put garlic all around, because the Vampires are coming!"
Perry added: "Next Summer it will be finally time for the Hollywood Vampires to rise again! We can't wait to play the songs from our latest album, Rise, for all our fans across the pond. The excitement builds as we countdown the days! See you all then...remember, leave the garlic at home!"
The band already have a run of shows lined up for mainland Europe in June. They've released two studio albums to date, their self-titled debut in 2015 and 2019 follow-up 'Rise'.
