Kelly Nickels (born January 5, 1962) is a bassist who has played in various bands including Sweet Pain, Faster Pussycat and L.A. Guns.[1]

He was replaced in Sweet Pain by Victor Prestin. He was badly injured in a motorcycle accident (at an intersection on the Sunset Strip in California) in October 1986, when he was still with Faster Pussycat. As a result, he injured his leg badly (in seven different places) and had to walk with a cane for a long time afterwards.

He sang lead vocals on the L.A. Guns song "Nothing Better To Do". He started his career as a roadie/light man for Hotshot, which was an early incarnation of the band Danger Danger and later was the band led by Mike Pont, the second Danger Danger vocalist.

He is married to Kelly Cunningham, the mother of famous actress Emma Roberts. Nickels also has a child with Cunningham, Grace Nickels born in 2001.
