Ryan Roxie is one of the world’s greatest guitarists and performed on stage with the best. Known as a solo artist and singer/songwriter he is also recognised for his guitar work and collaborations with Alice Cooper, Casablanca and Slash’s Snakepit.

He tells everyone he was inspired to play the guitar by Keith – not Richards but Partridge. And David Cassidy played a key role in his successful career.

He started working with Alice in 1996 and collaborated with him on several albums including Dirty Diamonds, The Eyes of Alice Cooper and Dragontown. He rejoined the band in 2012.

Roxie spent 2 years recording with Slash’s Snakepit Ain’t Life Grand, but admits “in reality, I always wanted to be Keith Partridge”.

Roxie is a huge fan of British Glam Rock with Sweet, T Rex, Mott the Hoople among his favourite groups. He has given The Move’s California Man and Slade’s Merry Christmas Everybody the Roxie treatment. He hosts a weekly podcast, In The Trenches, and is the founder of the System-12 Guitar method.

In our conversation we talk about his love of Bubblegum Pop, fame and where he rates David Cassidy in the history of rock ‘n’ roll.
