Bonneville are back as they look to draw back the curtain on their latest release, a cover version of 'Ten Years Gone'. Though the band are not known to release covers, an exception has been made for their outstanding rendition of the Led Zeppelin deep cut. Landing just as dynamic, colourful and pristine as the original, the band push the limits of the blues with layer-upon-layer of excuisite guitar work, ultimately providing something that is just as powerful as it is potent.

Rich with soul, melody, and finesse, Bonneville's cover of 'Ten Years Gone' does more than your average cover. Not only does it pay homage to the legendary British outfit, but it also shows a powerful side to Bonneville's artistry, the idea that no challenge is too big, and no project is too complex. Clocking in at a touch over seven minutes, the release cements the band as expansive, empowering musicians.

Speaking about the release, the band's guitarist and co-producer Jeff Hayashi explains, “We know we’re treading on sacred ground by covering the mighty Zeppelin, so if you’re going to do it, you’d better do it justice, which I feel we have. ‘Ten Years Gone’ was a major undertaking, and all of the players executed their parts flawlessly, especially the new elements that weren’t in the original recording."
