Chip Z’Nuff says Enuff Z’Nuff’s breakthrough with ‘New Thing’ on MTV changed the band’s trajectory overnight, taking the Chicago group from club stages to national television and arena tours during the late 1980s rock boom.

Jack Douglas, the American producer and engineer whose credits ranged from John Lennon and Yoko Ono's Double Fantasy to Aerosmith's breakthrough 1970s catalogue, has died at the age of 80 after complications from lymphoma. Douglas was one of the defining studio figures of classic rock, shaping landmark recordings for Lennon, Aerosmith, Patti Smith, Cheap Trick and the New York Dolls.

Cheap Trick have unveiled their new single Twelve Gates, a track that sets the stage for the band’s 21st studio album All Washed Up, arriving November 14, 2025 via BMG.

Cheap Trick are touring Australia again for Red Hot Summer in 2024 and for Cheap Trick fans, the setlist in quite the roulette wheel.

Cheap Trick performed a second show for Red Hot Summer on the Gold Coast on Sunday with a sizeable different setlist to the Saturday show.

Series Three of the Red Hot Summer tour for 2024 has kicked off in Port Macquarie with Cheap Trick back in Australia for their 10th tour.

Red Hot Summer Series 3, featuring Suzi Quatro and Cheap Trick, is set to go this weekend with the first shows in Port Macquarie on Saturday and Southport on Sunday.
