Hans Ziller in 2014 resurrected EZ Livin' for a solo venture that was originally planned to be temporary. On January 11, 2015 Ziller made a new line up for Bonfire. Under Ziller´s flagg Bonfire got back to his good vibes and the Album Glörious hit the German top 50 GFK Album charts! At the end of 2015 Ziller signed a new contract with the Label UDR/Warner-the home of Legends. In 2016 UDR releases the 30th Anniversary Double Album and Vinyl to celebrate 30 years of Bonfire.
