Following in the footsteps of their respective dads, Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons, are Evan Stanley and Nick Simmons. And of course, the first two are essential members of the iconic hard rock group KISS, who are once again in a condition of permanent retirement before going back on stage. Stanley Simmons, Evan and Nick’s joint musical endeavor, will release their debut single, “Body Down,” on December 5th, 2025, as was reported by theprp.
It’s time. Our debut single Body Down is out Dec 5. Presave it now- link in bio 🪐 A year ago Stanley Simmons wasn’t even the beginning of a thought in either of our heads. Now it’s pretty much all of them. We’re incredibly proud of the record we’re making and very stoked to share it with you all. Thank you all for taking the ride with us and thank you Rob, Kim, Joey, Jacob, Ally, Bryce, Pete, Vinnie, Harry, Kyle, Kuya, Shey, Harrison, Mister, Kate, Connor, Elena, Lindsey, and Erich for helping make this song and video come to life 🖤
In more recent news about KISS, their longtime drummer Eric Singer will participate in the eagerly awaited “KISS Kruise: Landlocked In Vegas” at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas from November 14–16, 2025. For two “unmasked” shows—one acoustic and one electric—the singer will rejoin with Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, and Tommy Thayer. This will be the first time KISS has performed together since they stopped touring in 2023. In addition, Singer will conduct a “Name That Tune” guitar and drum riff activity with Thayer, take part in a fan Q&A session with Simmons, Stanley, and Thayer, and autograph the event poster as a gift for each visitor. His inclusion coincides with the KISS family’s and fans’ global commemoration of founding guitarist Ace Frehley.
