The legendary shock-rock icon is launching a new weekly SiriusXM show, bringing his favorite music, unforgettable stories, and decades of rock ’n’ roll experience to listeners.
Alice Cooper is ready to bring his unmistakable personality to the airwaves once again!
The Rock and Roll Hall of Famer has announced a brand-new weekly radio show called “Alice in Underland,” joining Little Steven’s Underground Garage on SiriusXM. The announcement was made on October 6, 2026, during a special SiriusXM event featuring Cooper and legendary musician Steven Van Zandt, better known as Little Steven.
For Cooper, this new chapter is about more than simply playing records. It is an opportunity to share the music that has inspired him, revisit the artists who helped shape rock history, and tell stories drawn from a career spanning more than five decades.
The show is scheduled to premiere on Saturday, October 10, at 4 p.m. Eastern Time on Little Steven’s Underground Garage, SiriusXM Channel 21. An encore is scheduled for Sunday, October 11, at 9 p.m. Eastern Time, with new episodes continuing weekly.
A NEW CHAPTER FOR THE SHOCK-ROCK LEGEND
Alice Cooper has spent decades building one of the most recognizable identities in rock music. From theatrical performances and outrageous stage props to unforgettable songs, he helped transform rock concerts into elaborate spectacles.
But away from the stage, Cooper is also a longtime rock fan with a deep appreciation for the artists and records that shaped the genre.
That passion will be at the center of “Alice in Underland.”
Each week, Cooper will explore the Underground Garage playlist, add selections of his own, and share personal stories from his extraordinary journey through the music business.
Listeners can expect a mix of classic rock ’n’ roll, musical discoveries, and stories about the people and records that have influenced his life.
With more than 50 years of experience in the industry, Cooper has encountered countless musicians, witnessed major changes in popular music, and helped influence generations of performers. His new show gives him another platform to share that history directly with fans.
LITTLE STEVEN WELCOMES ALICE INTO THE FAMILY
The announcement was made alongside Steven Van Zandt, the guitarist, actor, and longtime member of Bruce Springsteen’s E Street Band who created Little Steven’s Underground Garage.
Van Zandt has spent years championing rock ’n’ roll, bringing together influential artists, classic records, garage-rock favorites, and emerging bands on the SiriusXM channel.
He expressed his excitement about Cooper joining the station, emphasizing the rock legend’s extraordinary stories and his natural fit with the channel’s musical identity.
For Van Zandt, the appeal of Underground Garage goes beyond playing familiar hits. It is also about having knowledgeable musicians and personalities share the stories behind the music they love.
Cooper appears perfectly suited to that mission.
The two musicians also came together for a special SiriusXM conversation celebrating Cooper’s new autobiography, Devil on My Shoulder. The discussion offered an opportunity to explore Cooper’s life and career before revealing his new radio venture.
“LONGTIME LISTENER, FIRST TIME DJ!”
Cooper himself summed up his enthusiasm with a playful description of his new role.
“Longtime listener, first time DJ!” he said.
He explained that Little Steven’s Underground Garage had already been saved among his radio presets for years and that he was looking forward to joining its community.
Cooper also promised listeners a collection of stories, some taller than others, alongside what he described as some of the best music ever recorded.
That approach feels fitting for an artist whose career has always mixed rock history, theatrical storytelling, humor, and a healthy disregard for convention.
Rather than simply presenting a playlist, Cooper will have the opportunity to offer his own perspective on the records he chooses and the musicians behind them.
For longtime fans, those personal recollections could be one of the show’s biggest attractions.
A CAREER THAT HAS HELPED DEFINE THEATRE IN ROCK
Cooper’s move into radio comes after more than five decades as one of rock music’s most distinctive performers.
His influence extends beyond hit songs. He helped establish the idea that a rock concert could be a theatrical experience, combining music with horror-inspired imagery, dramatic characters, elaborate props, and dark humor.
Songs such as “School’s Out,” “No More Mr. Nice Guy,” and “I’m Eighteen” remain important parts of his musical legacy.
His career has also crossed generations of rock musicians, connecting the early days of hard rock with the artists who followed.
Now, through “Alice in Underland,” Cooper can introduce listeners to music he admires while explaining why certain songs and performers have stayed with him throughout his life.
The format also creates room for discoveries. Alongside familiar classics, the Underground Garage tradition includes garage rock, punk, power pop, and newer artists carrying rock ’n’ roll forward.
That combination could make the show appealing to both longtime Cooper fans and listeners eager to discover something new.

And for rock fans, there is something especially appealing about hearing a legendary performer share the records, memories, and stories that helped shape his journey.
