Welcome, we are Kissmania, our band performs regularly throughout the country, and because of our loyal Kissmania fans, we’ve quickly risen to fame to become the the world’s #1 Kiss tribute band! Please take a moment to read over each band member’s biography featured below.
Kissmania History
Formed in late 2007, Kissmania dons the 1977-1978 Love Gun era stage and costumes. Paul Mueller (Gene Simmons), Mike Blair (Paul Stanley), Mark Hermansen (Ace Frehley) and Dave Schreck (Peter Criss) recreate the essence of what makes the original Kiss legendary while also incorporating the biggest and best hits of their entire 35 year career.
Kissmania brings the bombastic arena sized show to any stage that will have them, which includes a 4′ X 8′ flashing Kiss sign (or a 5′ X 6′ LED sign for smaller venues), fog machines, pyrotechnics (if allowed), walls of Marshall stacks, Ace’s smoking guitar, Gene’s fire breathing and blood spitting, to authentic instruments, costumes and makeup.
Since their inception, Kissmania has wowed audiences spanning from Arizona, Texas, Utah, Colorado, Wyoming, Montana and even Canada. And playing to crowds of a few hundred to their largest to date of 14,000 at the Music Under the Stars festival in El Paso Texas, July of 2009. Maintaining the formula “You wanted the best, you got the best”, Kissmania takes to heart the highest standards to bring any audience the exact, down to the smallest detail performance that has already established them as a top contender in the Kiss tribute band scene.
