Ace Frehley Recruits Kiss Artist

Paul Daniel “Ace” Frehley, the original lead guitarist and co-founder of KISS, has died aged 74. The man who brought outer space to the stage and forever changed rock guitar passed away on 16 October 2025, only weeks after suffering a fall in his home studio that led to a brain bleed. Frehley had been on life support since late September, following what was initially described as a “minor fall”.

Original KISS guitarist and solo artist Ace Frehley is reportedly in a critical condition, fighting for his life after suffering a brain bleed caused by a fall in his home studio a few weeks ago.

Rock legend Ace Frehley has been sidelined after a fall in his studio led to a precautionary trip to hospital, forcing him to cancel his scheduled performance at the Antelope Valley Fair in Lancaster, California.

Ace Frehley will release his eighth solo studio album ’10,000 Volts’ in February with the title track ready to go now.

Kiss guitarist Ace Frehley has cooked up his own take on Deep Purple’s ‘Space Truckin’ throwing the Ace into the lyrics to give it a point of difference.

Former Kiss member Ace Frehley has gone on a full on attack against Gene Simmons accusing Simmons of “slanderous remarks”, calling him and Paul Stanley “control freaks, untrustworthy and were too difficult to work with” and saying that Simmons recently “groped” his wife.

Ace Frehley says he wants in on the Kiss farewell tour and that the band “can’t do a final tour without me”.
