FOZZY members Rich Ward (guitar) and Frank Fontsere (drums) joined Nita Strauss and her solo band on stage on May 15 in Greenville, South Carolina to perform a cover version of the STUCK MOJO classic "Pigwalk". Fan-filmed video footage of the performance can be seen below. Strauss supported FOZZY on three shows during the band's run of dates this week. Ward and Fontsere are also members of STUCK MOJO, which formed in 1989 and is considered to be one of the pioneers of rap metal. Nita previously said that "Pigwalk" was the first song she and her boyfriend/manager Josh Villalta — who also plays drums in her band — ever jammed together when they first started dating. Strauss has been playing with Alice Cooper since 2014 when she replaced Australian musician and former Michael Jackson player Orianthi. She joined Alice in time for a mammoth MÖTLEY CRÜE tour. She was recommended to Cooper by the legendary rocker's former bass player and WINGER frontman Kip Winger. Nita's debut solo album, "Controlled Chaos", was released in November via Sumerian Records. STUCK MOJO issued its latest LP, "Here Come The Infidels", in June 2016. In addition to Ward and Fontsere, "Here Come The Infidels" featured STUCK MOJO's latest additions, vocalist Robby J and bassist Len Sonnier.
