Hollywood Vampires are once again paying tribute to the legends who inspired them, unveiling a blistering live version of Motörhead’s iconic anthem “Ace Of Spades” ahead of the release of their upcoming concert album, At Montreux Jazz Festival.
Recorded during the supergroup Hollywood Vampires unforgettable performance at the 2018 Montreux Jazz Festival, the track captures the raw energy that has made Hollywood Vampires one of modern rock’s most entertaining live acts.
Featuring Alice Cooper, Johnny Depp, Joe Perry and Tommy Henriksen, the performance serves as a heartfelt salute to the late Lemmy Kilmister, whose influence continues to resonate throughout the rock and metal world.
Accompanying the release is a live performance video filmed during the Montreux set, showcasing the band’s chemistry on stage as they tear through one of heavy music’s most recognisable songs.
“Lemmy was one of a kind. ‘Ace Of Spades’ remains one of the defining songs in rock history, and this performance honours his legacy.”

The live recording offers another preview of At Montreux Jazz Festival, arriving on August 7th via earMUSIC, rather than simply revisiting classic songs, the album reflects Hollywood Vampires’ long-standing mission of celebrating the artists who helped shape rock music while mixing those tributes with their own material.
Since forming in 2015, Hollywood Vampires have evolved from an all-star covers project into a fully realised band, their self-titled debut introduced fans to their love of classic rock, while 2019’s Rise showcased original material alongside the band’s unmistakable chemistry.
The upcoming live album captures that balance perfectly, featuring fan favourites, original songs and timeless classics from some of rock’s most influential artists. Alongside “Ace Of Spades”, the setlist includes performances of “Baba O’Riley,” “Sweet Emotion,” “Heroes,” “School’s Out / Another Brick in the Wall” and more.
For fans of classic rock, hard rock and Motörhead alike, At Montreux Jazz Festival promises to be both a celebration of Hollywood Vampires’ explosive live show and a fitting tribute to the icons whose music continues to inspire generations.
