STANLEY SIMMONS Unleashes 'Lilith' and Prepares for their Debut Tour
The metal world is buzzing with the release of the Greg Furman-directed music video for 'Lilith', the sixth single from STANLEY SIMMONS—a formidable collaboration between Evan Stanley and Nick Simmons, the sons of rock legends Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons, respectively. This track is plucked from their debut album, 'Dancing While The World Is Ending', which is set to drop on August 28, and it’s already making waves in the heavy music scene.
'Lilith' joins the ranks of five previously released singles from the album, including 'Body Down', 'Dancing While The World Is Ending', and 'Temporary Love'. With 12 tracks in total, including tantalizing titles like 'Dystopia Boogie' and 'Sing Myself To Sleep', this album is shaping up to be a fierce entry in the rock landscape.
But the excitement doesn’t stop there. STANLEY SIMMONS is gearing up for their inaugural U.S. tour, kicking off on September 14 in Dallas, Texas, and wrapping up on November 3 in West Hollywood, California. Fans should prepare for a raucous live experience as the duo brings their electrifying sound to life on stage—a sound that first electrified audiences during their live debut on May 4 at the House Of Blues Voodoo Room in San Diego.
The story behind STANLEY SIMMONS is as compelling as their music. Evan and Nick, lifelong friends who grew up backstage with their famous fathers, found their musical synergy during an impromptu Instagram session in December 2024. What began as a casual jam rapidly evolved into a serious project that rekindled their passion for authentic musicianship. Legendary producer Rob Cavallo—who's worked with titans like GREEN DAY and MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE—recognized their potential and stepped in to produce their debut record, further solidifying their place in the music hierarchy.
Paul Stanley himself weighed in on the project, praising the duo for their organic sound and artistic integrity. In an interview with The Drew Lane Show, he dismissed the notion of nepotism while praising their talent, stating, 'If you suck, you’ll fall on your face.' His endorsement speaks volumes, especially as he highlighted the depth of the tracks beyond their first single, 'Body Down'. With influences from classic rock and a unique sound, Evan and Nick are ready to carve their own path in this unforgiving industry.
So, as STANLEY SIMMONS readies their artillery for the road, one thing is certain: this duo is not just riding on the coattails of their parents but is instead poised to deliver a fresh, raw sound that resonates with both old-school rockers and new fans alike. Prepare yourselves, metalheads; the era of STANLEY SIMMONS is upon us.
