## Summary

Hollywood Vampires is a rock supergroup that takes its name from a social club frequented by Alice Cooper during the 1970s. The collective brings together Cooper with Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry, actor Johnny Depp, and bassist Tommy Henriklen, functioning as a vehicle for collaborative work with an expanding network of established rock musicians.

Since forming in 2012, the group has released two studio albums—a self-titled effort in 2015 and Rise in 2019—each showcasing contributions from prominent rock figures such as Dave Grohl, Slash, and Jeff Beck. The members are now moving forward with a series of arena and outdoor performances, with Cooper remarking humorously about bringing Depp back into the touring fold.
