Kiss founder Paul Stanley is on his way to Australia for a series of solo shows in April.
Stanley will give Australia a replica of his US club tour.Last year, Stanley released his second solo album 'Live To Win'. The album came 28 years after his self-titled solo debut.
His set-list will include not only songs from the two solo albums, plus a smattering of songs from the Kiss catalogue, including some Kiss songs which have never been performed live.
In a statement to Australia, Stanley said "The US shows were incredible and reconnected me to the reasons I loved live music growing up," he says. "Between all the KISS classics, songs we've never played and songs from my two solo albums, it's an ultimate night that's as good or better than anything else around. I want to continue this sweat fest as long as I can and my first questions was "Can I get to Australia?". Night after night the fans across the US were blown away. I can't wait."
Stanley's band will be the house band from the CBS TV show Rock Star: Supernova.
