 antiMusic has issued the following report:
We caught up with Donnie Vie last week to get the latest on the new
Enuff Z'Nuff album and ended up learning a lot more. Not only is the
new Z'nuff album almost complete, but the band has undergone a major
lineup change with a new lead guitarist and Donnie returning to
fronting the band full time.
Donnie has also started a new group called LA Smogg, which is already
hard at work on their debut. And as if that wasn't enough on his plate,
he's also auditioning for a major rock band that recently lost their
singer.
Donnie shocked fans seven years ago when he more or less retired
from touring. Part of his reasoning was his new marriage at the time
and relocating to Los Angeles from Chicago. In L.A. he kept busy and
released a string of solo projects, but sadly Donnie and his wife split
recently.
"I apologize to the fans for falling off the face of the earth for
seven odd years. But praise God I survived it," Donnie told antiMusic.
"With all due respect to Joni Vie, who is wonderful girl, the marriage
thing just didn't pan out. But you know me, I gotta try everything."
He told us his "lost weekend" is over and he's back to music 100%
and seems to be following the advice of one of his biggest hits by
"finding much invigoration" from his new freedom.
"As where the past six/seven years I've been learning the ropes of
computer recording, obviously I'm not the best at that so I'm gonna
leave that to the experts," he joked. "Now I'm living the complete
flipside of that record, total music. I'm feeling more alive and
stronger than ever and the whole thing is fresh and new to me again.
I've beat-off... all my demons. Now I'm getting high on music again."
We asked him about progress on the new Enuff Z'nuff album, Lost In
Vegas and he let out some surprising details, "At the last moment we
totally turned the whole Enuff Z'nuff record around and it's amazing.
The reason it's been delayed is that I didn't want to put out another
record that wasn't up to z'snuff. It started out with me having to
tweak songs I wrote for my solo projects to fit the Z'nuff sound. But
we tossed all of that out and wrote new ones in traditional Enuff
Z'nuff form. It's in the process of being mixed. And a limited
collectors edition will be available at Rocklahoma. We're also planning
on filming that performance for a DVD."
