Strauss has been playing with Alice Cooper since 2014 when she replaced Australian musician and former Michael Jackson player Orianthi. She joined Alice in time for a mammoth MÖTLEY CRÜE tour. She was recommended to Cooper by the legendary rocker’s former bass player and WINGER frontman Kip Winger.
Strauss is currently working on her new solo album, tentatively due later this year. It will be the follow-up to her first solo LP, “Controlled Chaos”, released in 2018 via Sumerian Records.
