On June 20th at the world-famous Trees in Dallas Texas, NITA STRAUSS brought her absolutely astonishing show to our enjoyment. Nita is one of the greatest guitarists in the world. Technically proficient, her playing is soulful and melodic. Oh, did I mention she is incredibly beautiful as well? Nita Strauss is a Rock Guitar GODDESS!
If you are unfamiliar with NITA STRAUSS, she hails from Los Angeles, where she first gained attention as the Guitarist for THE IRON MAIDENS & FEMME FATALE. In June 2014, she replaced Orianthi in ALICE COOPER‘s band. NITA STRAUSS has been ranked #1 on the list of ’10 Female Guitar Players You Should Know’. That is an honor but Nita can hold her own against ‘The Boys’ as well.
Hurricane Nita and band put on an amazing performance. In addition to her incredible instrumentals, the band threw in a cover of “I’m Eighteen” by her boss, ALICE COOPER. I was in awe watching her play. Being a guitarist myself I couldn’t take my eyes off of her fingers. So fluid, so fast. I have been trying to catch one of her shows but, have missed them. I am super happy to have caught this one. Hoping to see her once again when ALICE COOPER is in town on July 31st at The Pavilion at Toyota Music Factory with HALESTORM and MOTIONLESS IN WHITE.
