♬ Dancing While The World Is Ending - Stanley Simmons
Evan Stanley and Nick Simmons, sons of Paul and Gene, are officially launching their project “Stanley Simmons” and playing their first live shows.
I’ll be honest, I expected something louder and more theatrical. Instead, their songs like “Body Down” and “Dancing While the World is Ending” lean into a softer, more melodic vibe—kind of hazy, acoustic, and way more low-key than classic KISS. Not what I pictured, but it actually works.
They kick things off in California this May, and yeah, people are already tossing around the nepo-label. But as Paul Stanley has said, if it’s not good, it won’t last. From what I’ve heard, they’re off to a solid start—and doing it their own way.
