With a new covers album, Covered In Gold, under their belts as well as Chip Z’Nuff’s solo album Strange Time, classic rock icons ENUFF Z'NUFF will be heading across the pond for a series of headlining shows in the UK and Spain. Celebrating their 31st year as one of the hardest working bands in show business, Chip and the boys will be whipping European audiences into a frenzy with a mix of songs from their recent recordings as well as their much loved singles “Fly High Michelle”, “New Thing” and more.

Covered In Gold, a collection of 12 brand new studio recordings, features an eclectic assortment of cover tunes including DAVID BOWIE’s “The Jean Genie”, NIRVANA’s “All Apologies”, PRINCE’s “When Doves Cry”, SMOKEY ROBINSON’s “Tears Of A Clown” and lots more, all of which showcase this group’s incredibly diverse yet supremely melodic sensibility. The album also includes two rare bonus tracks, a live unplugged version of the group’s 1989 hit single “New Thing”, plus another cover, of THE BEATLES’ “You’ve Got To Hide Your Love Away”, performed live on the Howard Stern show.
The band has also released a video for their cover of BILLY SQUIER's "The Stroke", which you can check out right HERE.
Chip Z’nuff has led the band through its highest highs as well as its most turbulent times. The band scored two major successes in 1989 with hit singles off of their self-titled debut album, the aforementioned “New Thing” as well as the powerful ballad “Fly High Michelle”, both spent 46 weeks in the Top Ten on MTV and earned them a gold record.
Now an esteemed statesman of the music world, Chip continues to grow the EZ fanbase performing shows worldwide. He has also found a new passion in broadcasting, first as a frequent guest on Howard Stern’s radio program and more recently as co-host of the TV show Mancow TV. Covered In Gold, like ENUFF Z'NUFF, is further testament to the timeless appeal of great rock melodies, and not to be missed by fans of Steven Tyler, Robert Plant and Paul Stanley. As David Letterman says of the group, “When it comes to Rock N’ Roll, you don’t need anybody else.”
