Enuff Z’Nuff Conversation w/ Chip Z’Nuff – EP034

Enuff Z’Nuff is a band from the late 80s formed in Chicago by current bass player and vocalist Chip Z’Nuff and former vocalist Donnie Vie. A band, that in my opinion, never got a fair shake. They may or may not have contributed to their own trials and tribulations through sex, drugs, alcohol, and bad decisions, but no matter the issues and who was to blame, the bottom line was they wrote freaking great songs.

Episode Description

Enuff Z’Nuff had a great mixture of fantastic melodies, huge hooks, lush harmonies, and hard rocking guitars. With a feel straight out of the Beatles catalog, with their own spin, they were a power pop band at heart that were lumped into the hair metal category with many others from that era.

Growin’ Up Rock attended a local concert and sat down with Chip Z’ Nuff  after soundcheck to talk about his and the band’s early days. We talked about how a visit to the Howard Stern show changed the path of the band and we get insight into the current band lineup. Chip gives us exciting news about a brand new upcoming release “Diamond Boy” due out in June on Frontiers Records.

Enuff Z’Nuff Concert & Setlist

The band played a fantastic set that night on the bill with Junkyard, and yhe all female tribute band “The Iron Maidens” Chip looked right at home as the frontman and sounded great singing all the old material. The rest of the band, Tony Fennell: Guitar, Tory Stoffregen: Guitar, and Dan Hill: Drums were tight and all great players in their own right. The Friday night crowd was treated to the following set:
