Info zu Chester Rose

A long-lost Alice Cooper / Dick Wagner concept finally surfaces. Maryann Cotton’s Chester Rose arrives October 30 via Deko Entertainment — the theatrical nightmare Cooper and Wagner sketched in the spirit of Welcome to My Nightmare, now completed by the artist they hand-picked to carry it.

Written by Alice Cooper, Dick Wagner, and Maryann Cotton, the album follows a rock star turned serial killer across twelve tracks of lust, obsession, and murder — exploding hard rock that slides into darker storytelling closer to Lou Reed, Peter Gabriel, and classic Cooper.

Wagner passed before the album hit the studio. Cotton reopened the Pro Tools sessions two years ago, restoring Wagner’s riffs and solos. Steve Hunter became central to finishing it; Tommy Henriksen (Hollywood Vampires / Alice Cooper) added rhythm and lead. Much of the record preserves the Hunter/Wagner guitar partnership — making Chester Rose the final recording to feature both together.

"I lost my mentor, producer, co-writer, and my friend Dick Wagner last year, which led to a lot of personal and emotional distractions for me," says Danish / American rock singer Maryann Cotton.

"I was most honored to perform at the Dick Wagner - Remember The Child Memorial Concert at the Fillmore in Detroit this year, where we celebrated his beautiful friendship and majestic legacy. I was enveloped in the warm welcome of so many great musicians and Dick Wagner fans. This has helped me to move forward, as my Maestro would so encourage.

Dick and I managed to finish all the songs and pre-production for our announced album Chester Rose - The Legend Begins - but we never reached the studio process. When he died, we were in negotiations with one of the world’s biggest record companies, and future plans were falling into place.

My manager Susan Michelson, Dick Wagner’s business partner and personal manager, has continued moving ahead with the project and is currently working on contracts and related details. The record company remains very enthusiastic about the Chester Rose concept. They are dedicated to recording the Maestro’s final album, but the many details of this substantial project and its offshoots take some time to fall into place. I cannot wait till our album is ready to share with you.

With all that said, I’m proud to let you know that I secretly, over four months, have been in a writing, studio recording, and mixing / mastering process, and completed a full new album - to please my fans. (Maryann Cotton)

Maryann Cotton
Mary Ann Cotton was a serial murderer in the time of the victorian England and poisoned 20 people with Arsen until finally she was caught by police and finished here life at the gallows. This wife was a big inspiratin for a joung danish performer to find an artist name. MARYANN COTTON as a name for a band was born. Of course this name has to fit to the music, so its for sure not mainstream. As our danish artist showed his talent at the casting show "Sceen Er din" (what's in other countries a show like "Star search" or a similar format) with his 7inch "Shock me". This title shows the way it goes and so one new song of the forthcoming album "Do you think I'm crazy" goes in the same direction. Shock Rock like it was done y ALICE COOPER, KING DIAMOND and other famous artists. MARYANN COTTON for sure is not worse than these bands and the now five members of the band including Hal Patino, Andy LaRocque, Pete Blakk and Snowy Show (all were playing at KING DIAMOND) know exactly how to transport "shock rock" from the 70s and 80s to 2012. The fifth member and MARYANN COTTON itself is Jackie Patino, the son of Hal Patino who has all the talent his father has too and for luck the same musical preferences.
