Johnny Depp to perform concerts with Alice Cooper, Joe Perry

Johnny Depp is set to perform live with Alice Cooper and Joe Perry as the band Hollywood Vampires. The band announced shows scheduled for Sept. 16 and Sept. 17 at The Roxy in West Hollywood, California. The trio is based on Cooper's 1970s drinking club, the Hollywood Vampires, which included John Lennon, Harry Nilsson and Micky Dolenz. The group will release a self-titled album on Sept. 11 that includes collaborations with Paul McCartney, Dave Grohl, Joe Walsh, Slash, Brian Johnson and others.

Depp plays guitar throughout the album and sings background on some of the tracks. Hollywood Vampires will also perform at Brazil's Rock in Rio on Sept. 24. According to Rolling Stone magazine, the band will meet a hearing foundation to provide hearing aids for some fans so that they can hear music for the first time. They cover a mix of songs by the original Hollywood Vampires. The debut album will feature a number of notable special guests, including McCartney, Grohl, Slash, Joe Walsh and AC/DC's Brian Johnson.
