Hans Ziller (born May 18, 1959) is the master mind, founder, lead guitarist, backing vocalist and primary composer of the German 1980s melodic hard rock band Bonfire.[1] He founded the band called Cacumen (a predecessor of Bonfire) as a teenager in 1972. In 1989 in the middle of working on Bonfire's third album Point Blank - which, like the earlier albums, was produced by master producer Michael Wagener - Hans Ziller left the band because of insurmountable differences with the management and the rest of the band and began a project of his own called EZ Livin'.1993 he continued with Bonfire. 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!
