NEW From The Band

This Week
At HANSON HQ there are always many worlds colliding. The action that surrounds new products, planning events/tours/and releases,and of course the world of the band, working on songs and searching for daily inspiration for what creative paths we will follow next.
After the passing of our friend Bob Babbitt last week it really has brought into focus how important it is to acknowledge those that have been an inspiration. When you loose icons both behind the scenes like Bob Babbitt, Donald "Duck" Dunn and Alan "Mr Fabulous" Rubin and those that captured the worlds attention like Michael Jackson and Ray Charles (Ray's been gone almost a decade, wow) the gap that is left is immense. Like losing a family member who always played a silent role that kept the family bound together, their absence is felt in countless ways. Those that make our cultural bonds leave a similar gap, one that is not easily filled.
This week, let's think about inspiration, about songs and ideas that last. Inspiration is always there, you just have to be willing to seek it. Happy seeking.
Isaac, Taylor and Zac

NEW From The Band

This Week

There are always random things getting created here at HANSON HQ, some of those things are for the future (picture us each rubbing our hands together manaically) but this week we have quite a few things on the site and beyond. We are excited to announce a second members only event in Australia which we decided to do cause we have had so many people rsvp to come to the first event. So, basically Australia is amazing and we hope to see even more of you at the second MOE. There are also several random new things like new photo galleries of pics from the Banditos sessions and some of Tay's pictures all collected into one place for members. On a somber but musical note, during this last week we also lost a friend and collaborator the legendary Motown bass player Bob Babbitt. Bob was a timeless talent and a real gentleman, and his contribution to music on songs like "War", "Signed Sealed Delivered" and "Ball Of Confusion" have left a permanent indelible image on popular music. We recommend you all go out and listen to one of those classic tunes and remember the man and the music. We hope you have a great week!
Best -Isaac,Taylor and Zac

This Week


Six days left before we finish mixing, and then all that is left is one day of mastering the album. Every day we start off by reviewing what we did the night before, making any last changes and then moving on to the next track on our list. Things have been going well for the last week, and it looks like we are going to stay on track and just finish on time. While we are not yet finished mixing, all of our minds are starting to think about the next and final step, mastering. During mastering we will have to pick the final order for the album, and the final track listing deciding what will and will not make the new album. It is a hard decision, and one which every member of the band has there own perspective, but like always we will battle through until we come to a consensus.

In addition to the new album getting ever closer to its completion we are also charging head long into the other projects that go with the new album. Starting next month we will be announcing the first leg of the World Tour, the release date for the single, album and album packages. We will be announcing the name of the album and name of the documentary about the recording of the album. We are really excited to have everything lined up together for maybe the first time ever after twenty years as a band.
Isaac, Taylor and Zac Hanson

This week, there is a lot to share, some pics from Summerfest, and some snaps from the new 3CG studios, plus a lot of new content coming down the pike
It is hard to believe, but we are already half way thought 2012. wow. It has been a more quiet spring and early summer, but like we mentioned last week, we have been busy. We are working on songs,and plotting world domination...but you knew that, right :o) One of the things we are pumped to share with members starting next week is some blogs about the making of each of the No Sleep For Bandito's songs. We put together a cool video for each song that shows how they came together, and some of the strangeness that comes with a nocturnal EP. It's been a couple months since HANSON DAY but we are also going to be posting a new vid blog about all the stuff that went on during that weekend, we hope you like that. Beyond all the new stuff on Hnet we have been giving a lot of thought to new songs, and looking for inspiration. Check out a few random pics from our one off trip up to Milwaukee to do Summerfest last weekend, which was a GREAT show. Also some snaps from inside the new 3CG studio's last week. Have a great weekend ... and don't do anything we wouldn't do.

From The Band!

Well, the summer is in full swing here in the US, with the season of beaches, BBQ's and near death experiences during the Independence Day celebration where many exploding things are fashioned and released into the atmosphere. We have had a much quieter several weeks since the HANSON DAY gathering back in May but there is a lot going on at HANSON HQ. We are planning tours, working on music and coming up with cool ideas (we think they are cool) for events and special products to come out later this year. On another note we have several summer one off shows which will be great to keep our musical chops sharp (Summerfest this weekend in Millwaukee). Of course we are also pumped for the coming Canadian shows and the almost SOLD OUT Australian Shout It Out Tour (don't forget to get your tickets if you are in Sydney or Brisbane, they are almost gone). There are a lot of creative juices flowing in HANSONland, and we are also trying to stay cool in the depths of the record breaking American summer heat. We hope you are all staying cool, and have a great week wherever in the world you may be!

-Isaac, Taylor and Zac
