They were made for lovin’ music, too! Evan Stanley (son of KISS singer-guitarist Paul Stanley) has teamed up with Nick Simmons (son of KISS singer-bassist Gene Simmons) to record an album’s worth of music together.
Late last year, Evan and Nick posted a video of them singing an acoustic version of Simon & Garfunkel’s “The Sound of Silence” on Instagram. Now, they’ve taken their musical partnership to the next level.
A few days ago, Evan posted a photo of himself with Nick, captioning it, “One song turned into 10 real quick.” He followed that up with another post of the two performing one of their new tunes alongside singer-guitarist Jacob Bunton (Steven Adler, Mars Electric, Lynam), writing, “Wrote this one with our buddy Jacob yesterday.”
Paul Stanley commented on the performance simply with the word, “Magic!!!!,” while Nick’s sister Sophie Simmons wrote, “WE WANT THE ALBUM.”
Evan is already an accomplished musician, as the 30-year-old singer-guitarist fronts the band Amber Wild, who opened for KISS on the latter’s farewell tour.
The 36-year-old Nick, meanwhile, is known for appearing in the A&E reality show Gene Simmons Family Jewels. He also created a comic book series called Incarnate, and did voice-over work on Cartoon Network’s Robot Chicken. While he doesn’t have a long résumé when it comes to music, he did contribute vocals to Gene Simmons’ 2004 song “Carnival of Souls” and former KISS guitarist Bruce Kulick’s 2010 tune “Hand to the King.”
