ACE FREHLEY taken to hospital after “minor fall”
29-09-2025
Original KISS guitarist Ace Frehley was forced to cancel his previously announced appearance at the Antelope Valley Fair in Lancaster, California after sustaining minor injuries in a fall at his home.
The following statement was posted on Ace‘s social media: “Dear Rock Soldiers,
“Ace had a minor fall in his studio, resulting in a trip to the hospital. He is fine, but against his wishes, his doctor insists that he refrain from travel at this time. As a result, he is forced to cancel his performance at the Antelope Valley Fair in Lancaster, California on Friday, September 26th.
“Please go to the fair to support his friends in QUIET RIOT and VIXEN, and Ace looks forward to continuing on his tour and finishing work on his next album, ‘Origins Vol. 4’.”
Ace‘s current backing band consists of Ryan Spencer on bass, Jeremy Asbrock on guitar and Scot Coogan on drums.
During an appearance on the February 27, 2025 episode of SiriusXM‘s “Trunk Nation With Eddie Trunk”, the now-74-year-old Ace confirmed that he is working on “Origins Vol. 3”, the sequel to Frehley‘s 2016 and 2020 collections of cover songs that inspired the former KISS guitarist. He said: “I decided to reconnect with my old producer Alex Salzman. So, it won’t be me and Steve Brown,” referencing the TRIXTER guitarist/vocalist who helmed Ace‘s latest solo album, 2024’s “10,000 Volts”. “It’ll be me and Alex Salzman collaborating on that record since Alex did ‘Origins Vo. 1’ and ‘Vol. 2’ and we have a formula that we came up with and it seemed to work.”
Ace Frehley released his new solo album, “10,000 Volts”, on February 23, 2024 via MNRK Music Group (formerly eOne Music). The official music video for the LP’s title track — directed by Alex Kouvatsos from Black Wolf Imaging — can be seen below.
