About Poison
Poison, one of rock’s most iconic and enduring bands, are celebrating their 25th anniversary this year. In 1986, Poison released their debut album, Look What the Cat Dragged In. After years of hard work, touring and controversy, radio and MTV finally took notice of the band and their music, propelling Poison into superstardom. Featuring Poison’s original members, Bret Michaels (vocals), C.C. Deville (guitar), Rikki Rockett (drums) and Bobby Dall (bass), the band, along with Bret’s solo albums, have sold more than 31 million records and DVDs combined worldwide, with chart-topping hits such as “Every Rose Has Its Thorn”, “Something To Believe In”, “Unskinny Bop”, “Nothin’ But A Good Time”, “Talk Dirty To Me”, “Fallen Angel”, “IWon’t Forget You”, “Ride The Wind”, “IWant Action” and many others. Poison rocketed into the Billboard Top 20 with the #17 debut of the band’s 20th anniversary hits collection, The Best Of Poison: 20 Years Of Rock (Capitol/EMI). The 18-track hits collection was soon certified gold. More recently, Poison recorded an album of cover songs, POISON’D!, featuring many of their favorite rock classics. “Poison is one of the greatest rock ‘n roll bands in the world and, after 25 years, they can slam better than ever,” says POISON’D! producer Don Was. “They’re powerful musicians and very cool guys.”
