Yesterday we posted noting that Hanson had been announced as confirmed to be performing at SXSW, as of this afternoon they were still listed on the SXSW website, but now it appears that their band profile and listing on the site was removed. We are not sure if this means they are definitely not performing or if things are just not 100% confirmed.
(Hanson.net will have any information posted on their Calendar page if/when things are 100% confirmed)
Cape Town – We know 2017 has only just begun, but we’re already throwing it back 20 years.
The year was 1997, the music… probably the most memorable of your life, am I right?!
Remember Natalie Imbruglia’s Torn, Backstreet Boys’ Everybody (Backstreet’s Back), Spice Girls’ Spice Up Your Life, Meredith Brooks’ Bitch, Hanson’s Mmmbop or Mariah Carey’s Honey?
All these classic songs turn 20 this year!
Watch this compilation below for all the hit songs:
The cover for the R&R EP was shot in Glendale, CA
On the way to which R&R Tour show did the tour bus blow a tire?

1. Hanson
Americká pop-rocková skupina založená v Tulse, v Oklahome. Tvorili ju bratia ratov Isaac, Taylor a Zac Hansonovci. Sú známi predovšetkým vďaka svojmu hitu MMMBop (1997) z ich debutového albumu Middle of Nowhere, ktorý im vyniesol tri nominácie na cenu Grammy. Po určitom úspechu opustili kvôli konfliktu s producentmi nahrávaciu spoločnosť a založili svoju vlastnú, 3CG Records.

20 albums that turn 20 in 2017
O ano de 1997 foi bastante produtivo na cena musical, e diversos lançamentos ocorreram naquela ocasião. Tinha gente estreando na carreira artística, outros se reinventado, além de discos que entraram para a história.
Sabe quanto tempo faz que isso aconteceu? Sim meus amigos, vinte anos já, e para começar 2017 com o pé direito, vamos relembrar alguns dos discos que saíram na época.
The year of 1997 was very productive in the musical scene, and several launches occurred at that time. It had people debuting in the artistic career, others if reinvented, besides discs that entered history.
Do you know how long this has happened? Yes my friends, twenty years already, and to start 2017 with the right foot, let’s remember some of the records that came out at the time.
O trio de irmãos do Hanson conquistou o mundo em 1997, ao lançar o seu álbum de estreia através de uma gravadora comercial. Com o mega hit“MMMBop”, eles conseguiram chegar ao topo das paradas musicais de diversos países.
Middle Of Nowhere atingiu a marca de 10 milhões de cópias mundialmente, ficando em primeiro lugar de discos mais vendidos durante muito tempo.
Hanson – Middle Of Nowhere
Hanson’s trio of brothers conquered the world in 1997 by releasing their debut album through a commercial label. With the mega hit “MMMBop”, they managed to reach the top of the music charts in various countries.
Middle Of Nowhere reached the 10 million mark worldwide, ranking first of best selling albums for a long time.
This week, Atlanta trio Migos scored their first-ever No. 1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 chart with “Bad and Boujee” featuring Lil Uzi Vert. The song holds the distinction, anointed by Donald Glover during his Golden Globes acceptance speech on Sunday night (Jan. 8), as being “like the best song, ever,” and also enters the pantheon as one of the most confoundingly misspelled song titles to hit the top of the chart over the past several decades.
But that doesn’t mean it’s the only misspelled (or straight up made-up) word in a song title to rise to No. 1; “Bad and Boujee” directly replaced The Weeknd’s squeezed-together concoction “Starboy,” after all, and is the seventh song with such a title to reach the top in the past decade, of 40 titles in all.
From Sly and the Family Stone’s “Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin)” to T-Pain’s “Buy U a Drank (Shawty Snappin’)” to Destiny’s Child’s “Bootylicious” and plenty in between, here are 40 misspelled or made up song titles that have topped the Hot 100.
Hanson, “MMMBop”
Date Reached No. 1: May 24, 1997
Weeks at No. 1: 3
