Beyond Perennial

By | February 5, 2024

What songs are you hoping Hanson plays during the Beyond Perennial concert at Hanson Day this year? The Hanson Day page says, “Hear rarely performed songs from their 2020 album Perennial, as well as many more from the massive archive of members only music.”

Perennial was released in 2020 and is a public collection of 20 previously released Hanson.net Members Only songs as well as the new song, “Nothing Like a Love Song”.  There is quite a skew in the number of times the songs have been performed live ranging from 1 to 55.  Which ones are you most hoping for as part of the Beyond Perennial setlist?  How many songs do you think will end up being on the setlist? (For reference, 2022’s Storyteller’s set had 20 songs while 2023’s Underneath Acoustic revisited had 15.)

Better Days  1
I Lift You Up  1
Bad For Me  2
Gold Miner  4
Panic in the Streets  4
Young and Dumb  6
Nothing Like a Love Song  6
Grace Unknown  7
Stop Me In My Tracks  8

White Collar Crime  23

Meet at the Hotel Bar S2Ep8: Zac from Hanson

By | February 5, 2024

In today’s episode, we met up with the multi-instrumentalist talent that is Zac from the American pop rock band HANSON, in a hotel bar in The Westminster Hotel in London. Hanson, probably best known for their smash hit song MMMbop, have been nominated for 3 Grammys, and sold over 16 million records worldwide…May 6th has even been declared ‘Hanson Day’ in their hometown of Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Listening back to this episode had us in stitches laughing and we hope it does the same for you too, Zac had so much energy, and with 3 decades worth of tour stories we somehow managed to cram them into this episode, we couldn’t think of a better way to finish Series 2!

Stay tuned to hear stories of surviving stage invasions, what happens when 6000 people turn up to a small performance in a mall, how to act when the legs of your drum kit break mid-song forcing your kick drum to literally roll off stage, and what to do when presented with a decaying rotten apple in a glass cage which you apparently took a bite out of several years earlier!

This is Zac from HANSON coming up on ‘Meet At The Hotel Bar’
