Nita Strauss announces pause from touring plans including solo dates and with Alice Cooper

Big news in the Alice Cooper camp as long-time guitarist Nita Strauss will be taking a pause from touring which includes her solo band dates for the rest of the year and Alice Cooper‘s upcoming fall tour. Strauss joined Alice Cooper‘s band back in 2014.

The following message was posted in part on Strauss‘ Facebook page earlier today:

“After this absolutely incredible run in Europe, it is bittersweet for me to let you guys know that I will not be joining the Alice Cooper band for the upcoming fall tour.

I will also regretfully have to cancel the festival dates my solo band had planned for the rest of the year

I AM NOT PREGNANT!!! There is no drama whatsoever and my touring year is still VERY full- in fact, I’m on a flight straight into the next adventure as I post this, and I’ll be on stage again much sooner than you think! But that’s news for another day.

The past eight years together has been the experience of a lifetime, and I could not be more grateful to Alice and Sheryl Cooper, Shep Gordon, the amazing band, crew and fans for welcoming me to all of your nightmare.

I don’t know what the future will hold after this, but I am forever thankful “
