Hanson falls in love with his Mexican Fans
(Luis Ortiz)
The dream of brothers Isaac, Taylor and Zac to engage in music is still alive. They have struggled to maintain their musical proposal they presented in 1992 at the Mayfest Arts Festival in Tulsa and then consolidated under the name Hanson, which is their surname. The trio continues to reap success, the test was their concert at The Plaza Condesa.
“It’s been 25 years of music,” Taylor said in a greeting, to the euphoric scream of his followers, who contrary to expectations are of all ages, even Kalimba applauded and danced with the group that made A tour of its sound history.
“We are happy to be here,” he said in the name of Tory Taylor, while nostalgia seized those present, who happily moved their bodies frantically or screeched in support of their idols. “Thank you very much,” said Isaac in Spanish, prompting more screaming and euphoria.
To everyone’s taste Zac left the battery and sang “Madeline” next to his brothers, to capture the excitement generated Taylor took a picture of the audience. The party continued to grow, as did the love between artists and audience, with the constant interactions they had.
“We started our musical company a few years ago, we take it’s crazy chance because we wanted to be with you, so thank you for appearing” said Taylor, who later would accept: “What amazing fans here tonight”, and checked it even more when Girl let out loud: “I love you damn!”
The mood was further unleashed when in “Get the Girl Back”, Taylor showed the Mexican flag over his shoulder, which he then placed on one of his instruments. “I’m sad because this is our last show here, but how about we go back?” Asked the band’s vocalist to sing his biggest hit, MMMBop.
“Are you tired?” asked Taylor, the cheers and the chorus of “Hanson, Hanson, Hanson!” They let him know that no, so the third track continued with the song “If Only” equal or more celebrated than his previous piece.
To bid farewell to their followers they offered their versions of “Rockin Robin” and “Johnny B Goode” but the close with a gold finish put “Lost Without Each Other”

Hanson, the boy band that seeks to be legitimate 20 years later
Things you should not do in 2017: look for your primary crush on Facebook or the boy-band of your teenage years in Google. The effect of seeing Hanson 20 years later is similar to attending a breakfast of the generation 97 to face the ineffable passage of time: where is Taylor, the long-haired güerito – a mini Kurt Cobain – who sang like a girl? , Which of the three is the little one who played the drums? And you still do not define if the older of the band got more handsome, or now looks even more like Erick Rubin.
Then the talk of the children: there are mixed feelings when you learn that the children of the band are now parents: the brothers Isaac (36), Taylor (34) and Zac (31) have dedicated themselves to procreate Like the 101 Dalmatians and in total, among the three add up … 12 children, and even claim that their offspring could form their own band: please do not! Eye, they are not Mormons, but to feed so many offspring, Hanson have had to fight against the curse of the one hit wonder: the sticky “MMMBop” and have continued recording and turning independently to seek to legitimize themselves as musicians after being thrown For his label in full crisis post-Napster.
If ex-alumni meetings are your thing, then you have an appointment at El Plaza to see Hanson. Just do not end up talking to your contemporaries of medicines, divorces, and failed businesses; Better remember those teenager afternoons as you watched MTV and chose your favorite Hanson.
Hanson thrilled GDL

The brother conquered the Tapatio public with the themes that made them one of the most successful groups to celebrate their 25 year career.
Although 25 years have passed since they began their career, Isaac, Taylor and Zac just last night debuted on the tapatio stage. Thousands of girls crammed the C3 Stage, most between 25 and 30 years old; the number of gentlemen in the room was significantly smaller, part of them serving as companions, but entering the concert alike.
The band Norway began the night at 20:30 hours, and was well received. An hour later came the expected moment.
The trio of US brothers arrived on stage and started off with energy to take off with “Where’s the Love” followed by “Look at You” and “Give a Little”. Taylor, who just minutes from having started was already bathed in sweat, thanked the attendees.
“This Time Around” was heard just 20 minutes after the concert began, and it was one of the most choreographed and filmed tracks; there was a moment when the female voices overshadowed them and they allowed themselves to consent.
Although the three brothers received affection from the fans, the screams for Taylor were heard in the slightest pause. But beyond returning in time, the boys demonstrated their instrumental ability at all times, that which distinguished them beyond the pop label.
Then came the turn of another of his most iconic songs, “Weird”, whose video was made by the filmmaker Gus Van SAnt, which enlivened one of the most emotional moments and the opportunity for Zac to demonstrate his talent in the microphone.
When the boys tried to talk to the attendants, they had to wait for the screams to stop. Shortly after came “Madeline”, another respite, quieter tone, with Isaac on acoustic guitar. Taylor with a tambourine and Zac left the battery to add to the front.
The atmosphere between the audience was always cordial, the fans looking at each other at the end of each song with huge smiles. “Juliet” continued the theme dedicated to the girls and the wave of arms to the air accompanied him.
“We’ve been playing for 25 years and that’s crazy. In 2002 we opened our record company and we are betting on you,” said Taylor, grateful before dedicating “Strong Enough to Break” which was followed by “Penny and Me”.
It had been an hour before the show, and some of them went out for a moment to cool off, but that pause was brief.
“Watch Over Me” caused waves and dances among the audience. The brothers took a moment to give them “A Song to Sing”.
“As part of our community, we are now visiting them, they are invited to visit our city” Taylor proclaimed before singing “On and On” which was performed by the three with an acoustic guitar each.
In “I Was Born”, suddenly among the audience appeared dozens of balloons that the fans moved to the rhythm of the music creating a picturesque effect.
Taylor wrapped himself up with the Mexican flag and placed it on his keyboard to play “Get the Girl Back”. The end of the night was approaching and of course the party provoked MMMBop, a success that made them sound all over the world in the nineties.
With the promise of an early return, the trio said goodbye to shouts and applause, marking as a success their first concert at Perlap Tapatia, after 25 years of artistic career.

Your dream is music
The Hanson brothers return today to Mexico City for their 20th anniversary tour of the album ‘Middle of Nowhere’
MEXICO CITY.
The theme MMMBop pursues the Hanson brothers 20 years later.For a while Isaac, Taylor and Zac were annoyed at being stuffed into their sticky song, even avoided talking about it, until their new single I Was Born came out .
“It’s true that they are very similar songs. MMMBop talks about focusing on the things that really are important, we had interesting things to say even though we were younger, now with our new roll we continue on the channel to pursue your dreams, urge others to get yours.
“Everything is focused on work, on staying positive even when life challenges you super difficult, have many ideas similar to each other, but it is what defines the group: not having the fear of plotting our course because that makes us different from the Rest and remains so two decades later, “the oldest of the carnal, Isaac, 36, said in a telephone interview.
They began in 1992 when they gave their first show as a trio, recalls the also guitarist.
Now lives a time of much nostalgia celebrating the 20 years of his first album Middle of Nowhere , with which they will return to Mexico City today.
All those feelings came together for I Was Born , an anthem also personal for the brothers who for their album Underneath (2004) decided to become independent by problems with his record company and disagreements that there were.
“The industry has made me discuss how I viewed music when I was just a child, because it was always one of the most difficult ways to live, even now it is. That is a point that has aged with the child of then.
“But the other is that we have become people who love to share what we do, drive our dreams, work hard and always stay inspired by our passion. This is where we come back to I Was Born , that’s why that song is so important to us. ”
Hanson works all his music under his own independent label 3CG Records, based in his native Tulsa, Oklahoma, they make the decisions of his career, the album cover, his sound, his tours, his editions, his life falls on his hands And despite being part of the pop genre, they have achieved it without the need of a transnational one and bypassing their daily coexistence as brothers.
“It’s not easy and it never has been,” laughs Isaac before continuing to relate his story with his family. “Life is not simple and many of the good things came because of our effort, sacrifice and commitment, because before we were 100 percent happy as brothers, we always anticipated our career and here we continue,” he shared.
