Alice Cooper

Alice Cooper, born Vincent Damon Furnier on February 4, 1948, is an American rock singer known for his raspy voice and macabre stage shows. Cooper's career has spanned over five decades, earning him the title of 'The Godfather of Shock Rock'. His theatrical brand of rock incorporates props and stage illusions such as pyrotechnics, guillotines, and electric chairs. Drawing influence from horror films, vaudeville, and garage rock, Cooper has pioneered a unique and shocking style of music that continues to captivate audiences. Originally a band formed in Phoenix, Arizona, in 1964, Alice Cooper eventually became Furnier's stage name as he embarked on a successful solo career.
