The late Mark St. John was born on this day in 1956.

St. John was an American guitarist best known for his brief but memorable tenure with KISS in 1984.

His guitar work later appeared on the 2023 live album Off the Soundboard, further cementing his place in the band’s history.

After leaving KISS, St. John co‑founded White Tiger, continuing to explore his technical, hard‑rock style. His life ended tragically on April 5, 2007, several months after a violent assault during a brief incarceration. Despite the circumstances of his passing, St. John is remembered by fans for his remarkable talent and unique contribution to KISS’ legacy.
