For the first time in nearly 20 years, legendary guitarist Ace Frehley has emerged to add a new exclamation point to his celebrated solo career. Scheduled for liftoff on September 15th, the original KISS guitarist’s fifth solo album, Anomaly, will be released on his own Bronx Born Records, with Rocket Science providing a full label service platform. Frehley, a long time Gibson artist, will launch his second Gibson Ace Frehley Signature Les Paul guitar with the musical instrument giant later this year. His first signature Gibson guitar (in 1997) was one of the best selling signature models of all time.

One of the most beloved personalities in rock ‘n’ roll, Frehley’s the man behind not only KISS’ iconic logo, but the all-time stadium anthem 'New York Groove'.

From the thunderous guitar riffs of the first single 'Outer Space' to his supercharged cover of SWEET’s 1975 classic 'Fox On The Run', Anomaly includes several nods to his distinguished career. The pickup acrobatics of 'Fractured Quantum' and wah-wah scourge of 'Genghis Khan' (featuring backup vocals from MEAT LOAF’s daughter Pearl Aday) are signature Ace. It should go without saying, but “this album has some heavy, heavy songs,” Frehley promises.
