Guitarist Gilby Clarke to fill in for Nita Strauss in Alice Cooper’s band

Guitarist Gilby Clarke will join Alice Cooper’s band for shows from Jan. 31 to Feb. 16, 2025, filling in for Nita Strauss, who has conflicting obligations. Orianthi, who toured with Alice Cooper from 2011 to 2014, originally was set to fill in, but due to unforeseen circumstances, she now is unable to do the tour.

Clarke, best known for his years with Guns N’ Roses, has had a long career working with a variety of artists, including Nikki Sixx, Slash, Nancy Sinatra, Rockstar Supernova, Heart, Slim Jim Phantom and MC5, as well as releasing several solo albums.

The tour schedule for these shows is:

1/31 — Augusta, GA — Bell Auditorium
2/1 — Cherokee, NC — Harrah’s Casino Resort Event Center
2/2 — Greensboro, NC — Steven Tanger Center for the Performing Arts
2/4 — Mobile, AL — Saenger Theatre
2/6 — Orlando, FL — Hard Rock 
2/7 — Ft Myers, FL — Barbara Mann Performing Arts Hall
2/8 — Clearwater, FL — Coachmen Park
2/11  — St. Augustine, FL — Amphitheatre
2/13-2/17 — Miami, FL — Rock Legends Cruise

Alice Cooper will announce further 2025 tour dates, with Nita Strauss back in the fold, including already-announced shows on May 9 at the Sonic Temple festival in Columbus, Ohio; May 18 at the Boardwalk Rock Festival in Ocean City, Maryland; and Aug. 15 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, at Lincoln Financial Field with My Chemical Romance.
