Nita Strauss | What's In My Gig Bag

Maiden, check. Kiss, Check. Alice Cooper, check. Nita Strauss is the ultimate shredder, she's done it all and now she's launching her debut solo album, "Controlled Chaos". Nita stopped by to show us her new Signature Ibanez and do some shopping. We talked working guitarist essentials and she gave us a peek inside of her gig bag.

Strauss started touring with her own band as a teenager, leaving high school in her junior year to pursue music full time. Although initially known for her work with Iron Maiden all-female tribute band The Iron Maidens, Strauss’ career has included performing with several rock ensembles including Consume the Fire, Femme Fatale, and the video-game supergroup Critical Hit.[4][5]

In 2014, Strauss was the official in-house guitarist for the Los Angeles Kiss (LA KISS), the arena football team owned by Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons of KISS. The house band played the national anthem and provided additional music during the games.[6]

In June 2014, Strauss was hired to replace Orianthi as Alice Cooper's touring guitarist and play the remaining 2014 tour dates.[7][8] She has toured with Alice Cooper ever since.[9]

Strauss is featured as the main guitarist for seven songs on Docker's Guild album called The Heisenberg Diaries – Book A: Sounds of Future Past, released on January 21, 2016.
