ALICE COOPER-Penned Songs To Be Featured On New MARYANN COTTON Album

August 19, 2013

Danish rock singer Maryann Cotton (born Jackie Patino),the son of KING DIAMOND bassist Hal Patino, has announced via his Facebook page that legendary rocker Alice Cooper "has written material" for Cotton's sophomore album, tentatively due in early 2014. Alice's involvement will be featured on three songs, along with his former collaborator Dick Wagner.

"My meeting with Alice Cooper in Germany went so well," says Maryann. "He was such a nice guy and I can't wait to go in the studio and record the songs they have written. It takes me back to my childhood when I listen to the tracks by Dick Wagner and Alice Cooper.

"Thank you so much for a great time together and for all your help and support, I really appreciate it!

"My biggest inspiration and hero of all time, Alice Cooper!"

Wagner is producing the new Maryann Cotton CD, which will be "a full concept album," with "the most terrifying horror story ever," according to a press release. Also set to make a guest appearance on the effort is KING DIAMOND guitarist Andy La Rocque.

La Rocque previously played on Cotton's debut CD, last year's "Free Falling Angels", on the tracks "Crazy", "Night Train To Paris", "Miss Misery", "Shock Me" and "Maryann".

Maryann Cotton debuted his new band on September 14, 2012 at Amager Bio in Copenhagen, Denmark.

"Free Falling Angels" was released on June 15, 2012 via Pure Steel Records. The CD featured guest appearances by four musicians who performed on KING DIAMOND's 1990 album, "The Eye" — Hal Patino, guitarists Andy La Rocque and Pete Blakk, and drummer Snowy Shaw.

Maryann Cotton's career was launched in 2006 when he performed live on Danish TV as part of the "Scenen Er Din" program (Danish version of "Star Search").
