HOLLYWOOD VAMPIRES Premier Official Music Video For Cover Of DAVID BOWIE Classic "Heroes"
June 7, 2019, 5 years ago
Hollywood Vampires (featuring rock 'n' roll royalty Joe Perry, Hollywood superstar Johnny Depp, and shock rock icon Alice Cooper) recorded their own version of David Bowie's "Heroes" at the legendary Hansa Studios last year - the same place where Bowie wrote the original back in 1977. Watch the video for "Heroes" below, and listen to the song on Spotify, Apple Music your favorite streaming service.
Rise, the band’s second album, is some of the purest, unapologetic and most enjoyable rock and roll of the year, made by masters of the craft and true fans of the form.
Unlike their 2015 debut record, the new album Rise consists mainly of original material, written by the band. There are however, in the spirit of the Vampires’ original mission, three covers of songs originally written and recorded by some fellow rockers who died far too young: an intimate and intense version of David Bowie’s “Heroes”, again beautifully performed on record by Johnny Depp; the late Jim Carroll Band’s “People Who Died,” and Johnny Thunder’s “You Can’t Put Your Arms Around A Memory,” sung by Joe Perry.
Produced by Tommy Henriksen and the Hollywood Vampires, Rise is set to the most anticipated rock albums of 2019 will be released on June 21 on earMUSIC as CD Digipak, 2LP+Download and Digital. Pre-order here.
