Over its 25 years together the group has released six studio albums and sold more than 16 million albums. Later this year it will release Middle of Everywhere – The Greatest Hits, which will include the singles Mmmbop, Where’s The Love,Weird, This Time Around and the new single I Was Born.

HANSON – MORE AUSTRALIAN SHOWS ANNOUNCED

By | March 27, 2017


SYDNEY, 2 MELBOURNE, BRISBANE SOLD OUT – SECOND SYDNEY SHOW ADDED!

Australia’s response to the announcement of its leg of HANSON’s 25th Anniversary World Tour last Monday was overwhelming; fans were elated at the chance to celebrate this incredible milestone with the band that Faster Louder called “your childhood heroes”. Pedestrian.tv comforted fans who thought HANSON might have forgotten Australia in their worldwide tour announcement, telling readers to “set aside your fears, the boys will be back in town in June”.

The enthusiastic response to the tour announcement, from media and fans alike, was this week matched with the same excitement as tickets went on sale for the national Australian tour on Monday morning.

HANSON’s first Melbourne show on Sunday 18th June sold out in a matter of minutes, with a second show at The Forum on Monday 19th June, added almost immediately and sold out within hours.

Sydney’s Enmore Theatre and The Tivoli in Brisbane were not far behind, selling out the same day that they went on sale. To meet the unprecedented demand, a second Sydney show at the Enmore Theatre has been added on Thursday 22nd June and will go on sale at 9am on Friday 31st March.

There are limited tickets still available for HANSON’s shows in Perth, Adelaide, Gold Coast and Auckland, so fans are encouraged to act fast if they haven’t already secured their tickets.

WEEKLY PIC

This year we returned to the baseball diamond where we met our first manager 23 years ago, during the South By Southwest music conference. We have covered a lot of ground since then. Where were you 23 years ago?


MESSAGE FROM THE BAND

We have been blown away by the response to the Middle Of Everywhere World Tour. It feels like every day we hear about more shows selling out!   It feels so good to know that all of the summer and fall we will be traveling playing shows, and there is even more coming. US, Canada and European shows are on sale now, Australia and New Zealand just went up for Pre-Sale and we are working on the South American Leg of the tour.

The world tour has been at the forefront of everything we are doing, but every adventure needs a great theme song. In the next few weeks we will be sharing more about our new song, I Was Born, and how the message of the song represents so much of our outlook on making music for 25 years and where and when you can get your hands on it.

From MMMBop to I Was Born, we have always been shooting for the stars, who knew that sometimes you hit what you are aiming for.

Isaac, Taylor and Zac

We caught Hanson live in Austin ahead of their 25th Anniversary Australia & New Zealand tour

By | March 23, 2017

The AU Review

Hanson performed at the Tulsa Showcase at SXSW last week after revealing the details of their 25th Anniversary Middle Of Everywhere World Tour, which includes just-announced a stop over in Australia in June.

After a small delay due to sound issues the three original brothers Isaac, Taylor and Zac hit the stage at a packed out Bungalow. The mostly older audience travelled down memory lane with a 60 minute set which contained a 12 song setlist.

A little older, a little wiser, Hanson performed their classics such as a slightly slowed down version of “Mmmbop”, “Where’s The Love” and “If Only”. Not much banter was given during a quick set but Hanson did say they were looking forward to seeing their fans all over the world at their 25th Anniversary tour (Australia and NZ included).

FULL SETLIST:
Fired Up
Where’s The Love
A Minute Without You
Penny and Me
Waiting For This
Get The Girl Back
Thinking ‘Bout Somethin’
Give a Little
MMMBop
I Was Born
If Only
Already Home

Hanson reminds us of everything that was good about our youth – carefree and all-sugary pop. This was only amplified by the excitement of the older audience at this Tulsa showcase. Fun fact: Garth Brooks and St Vincent also come from Tulsa, though neither would appear on this night (Brooks later did a free show, however, to close out the Austin based festival in front of tens of thousands of people).

So, what has Australia got to look forward to this June? 25 years later, the brothers proved they still put on a great show and provide their audiences with guilt-free pleasure. The very best of Hanson indeed.
