Alcatraz Line up: 2024

Fans of legendary hard rockers KISS won’t have to go hungry for long. The band may have bid its final farewell but bassist/vocalist and co-founder Gene Simmons is far from done. Flanked by a selection of ace musicians he’s hitting the road this summer in Europe at the head of the Gene Simmons Band and yes, Alcatraz is one of the stops on their itinerary. For the man with the mythical tongue this is far from his first endeavour outside the KISS fold. Previously he toured the globe with his own band in 2017 and 2018. The main menu consists of songs in which he takes up lead vocal duties. With a set list consisting of such seminal tracks as ‘Deuce’, ‘Shout It Out Loud’, ‘War Machine’, ‘God of Thunder’, ‘Calling Dr Love’ and ‘I Was Made for Lovin’ You’, supplemented with solo material and classics from 50 years of rock ‘n’ roll history, Gene’s ‘Wall of Sound’ is guaranteed to set our prison courtyard ablaze.
