Steelhouse Festival 2021 promoters Mikey Evans and Max Rhead said: “It is with barely contained excitement that we can announce the one and only Spaceman, Ace Frehley will be flying in from Jendell to join us on the Mountain for Steelhouse 2022.

“Being co-founder and original lead guitarist of KISS as well as a Rock n Roll Hall Of Fame inductee, he is one of the most recognisable and influential players of all time… A true icon. Smoking guitars at the ready, we’re back!... Back in the Steelhouse Groove!”
