The three iconic rock stars in Blue Coupe are the angry orphans of Blue Öyster Cult and the Alice Cooper group, and they're out to prove something to the world with show-stopping performances and a wall shaking sound that keeps their legion of fans calling for more.
Blue Coupe's multi-talented members are Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, Dennis Dunaway bassist and founder of the legendary Alice Cooper group, with Joe and Albert Bouchard, original founders of Blue Öyster Cult. Joe is the guitarist and multi-instrumentalist, and Albert is the master drummer. These revolutionary originals were the heartbeat of several of the best known songs in the history of rock. And note for note, their full-throttle expertise hits you over the head and grabs you by the heart in Blue Coupe.
With the original Alice Cooper group, Dennis co-wrote smash hits including "I'm 18," "School's Out," and "Under My Wheels" while Albert and Joe were co-writers and arrangers of many of Blue Öyster Cult's biggest hits including "Cities on Flame with Rock and Roll," "Hot Rails to Hell," and "Astronomy" (covered by Metallica). Joe, Albert and Dennis have sold over 15 million albums and have been awarded over 30 gold and platinum records worldwide.
In 1973 Blue Öyster Cult opened shows for the Alice Cooper group on a record-breaking tour of outdoor festivals and sold-out arenas that made the cover of Forbes magazine for the highest grossing tour of the year. As Alice Cooper became world famous with hits like "No More Mr. Nice Guy" and "Elected", Blue Öyster Cult continued with their own sold-out tours with hits like "(Don't Fear) The Reaper" and "Burnin' For You." BÖC also pioneered their own groundbreaking stage show with rock's most elaborate lazer light show with pryotechnical explosions and a ginormous Godzilla.
But Blue Coupe have found continuing glory with their highly acclaimed album, "Tornado On The Tracks," which has multiple Grammy considerations in 2011 and 2012, including "Angel's Well" featuring Robby Krieger legendary guitarist for The Doors. And Blue Coupe continue to tour North America and Europe with such illustrious shows as the "Halloween Parade" in New York City where they were seen by more than a million people.
Blue Coupe's second album, "Million Miles More," features Alice Cooper, Tish and Snooky from Manic Panic, Ross the Boss from Manowar and the Dictators, Buck Dharma from Blue Öyster Cult and Goldy McJohn from Steppenwolf as special guest stars. The album was mixed by Jack Douglas (Aerosmith, John Lennon, Cheap Trick, Alice Cooper, BOC) and Warren Huart (Aerosmith, The Fray, James Blunt). The new single "Hallow's Grave" with vocals by Alice Cooper has been submitted for Grammy consideration.
All you Blue Oyster Cult & Alice Cooper fans that saw Blue Coupe here a couple years ago,
please remind everyone just how great this show really was.
