As a rock icon and filmmaker with a unique vision, Rob Zombie has continuously challenged audiences as he stretches the boundaries of both music and film. He has sold over 15 million albums worldwide, and is the only artist to experience unprecedented success in both music and film as the writer/director of eight feature films with a worldwide gross totaling more than $150 million. Each of Rob Zombie‘s seven solo studio albums have debuted in the Top 10 on Billboard 200 chart, including his most recent album, “The Lunar Injection Kool Aid Eclipse”, in 2021. Zombie is an eight-time Grammy nominee, with his most recent nomination for “Best Metal Performance” at the 2022 awards. Rob Zombie has proved an undeniable box office success throughout his career. His ninth feature film, “The Munsters”, was released in September 2022.
Alice Cooper pioneered a grandly theatrical brand of hard rock that was designed to shock. Drawing equally from horror movies, vaudeville, and garage rock, the group created a stage show that featured electric chairs, guillotines, fake blood and boa constrictors. Alice Cooper brings his own brand of rock psycho-drama to fans both old and new, enjoying it as much as the audience does. Twenty-plus years into the new millennium, Cooper is always very productive and busy, touring worldwide year-in and year-out while also writing, recording and releasing new albums like 2021’s “Detroit Stories”, which entered the Billboard Album chart at No. 1, and finishing up two new albums planned for 2023, while also continuing to do his nightly “Nights With Alice Cooper” syndicated radio show.
