Hanson – August 2, 2022 at the Corona Theatre LiveEvents July 26, 2022 1291 evenko presents Hanson – Red Green Blue 2022 Tour Emerging on the world stage in 1997 with the ubiquitous smash single “MmmBop”, HANSON, the pop-rock band of brothers Isaac, Taylor and Zac Hanson, introduced themselves to the world. Blending their influence of soul and rock n’roll with a love of song craftsmanship, the brothers quickly earned stardom and also respect from peers, earning them three Grammy Nominations and millions of albums sold. HANSON’s focus on the long game was apparent from the start of their career, with their admiration for touring acts like the Grateful Dead who cultivated fanbases outside of the fickle radio world. Today the beloved band is heading into their 30th year performing together (25 since their major debut), and is in the coveted position of having an active global fanbase and independence as owners of their label where they have self-released music since 2003. Knowing their history informs the bold moves they continue to make, and frames the world tour and new album project which marks their return to the world stage in 2022. The RED GREEN BLUE Tour and Album utilize the inspiration of colors to reflect the unique creative voice of each brother, with a third of the album written and produced by each individual (Taylor’s Red, Isaac’s Green and Zac’s Blue). “Going into our 30th year as a band we felt like it was imperative we continue to tell our story like only we can, and telling stories in ways that will continue to challenge us to grow and give people new reasons to listen. Red Green Blue is about sharing what has made us a band that has been able to weather so many storms,” said Isaac Hanson. The project also brings together a team of collaborators, with the album co-produced by Grammy award winning Producer, Engineer and Mixer Jim Scott (Tom Petty, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Wilco), and Grammy Award winning Artist and Producer David Garza (Fiona Apple, Midland, Sharon Van Etten). “Our love and respect for Jim Scott has only grown since we first met 20 years ago. He has been behind some of our favorite albums, so it was an absolute joy to have finally made a project together,” said Taylor Hanson. Added Zac Hanson, “We have had a long friendship and a deep connection with David since our early days as a band. We could not have had a better musical collaborator for this milestone project.” Fresh off of the release of Against The World, featuring seven songs released consecutively each month, the prolific band of brothers are reinforcing their deep musicality and credibility as writers, performers and producers with the new project. Leading up to May’s full album release of RED GREEN BLUE, fans got a taste of the trifecta of sound, with a single featuring each of the brother. On February 11th Taylor’s earnest and dynamic “Child At Heart”, March 11 saw the release of Isaac’s organic and heartwarming “Write You A Song” and April 15 featured the rock infused pop of Zac’s “Don’t Let Me Down”. Founded in 1992 at ages eleven, nine and six, brothers Isaac, Taylor and Zac spent their first five years building a fanbase as an independent band in Tulsa, OK, performing both classic rock ‘n’ roll and soul music and their own original material, to form their own unique blend of harmony-driven, soulful pop-rock. This unlikely focus was forged by an early introduction to music from the 1950’s and early 60’s, with the young brothers citing influences from Aretha Franklin to Otis Redding, The Beatles, Elvis, Little Richard and Chuck Berry. This formed the bedrock of their musical inspiration, helping to forge their signature sound which incorporated strong melodies and song craft, as well as reverence for their musical forefathers. HANSON has never been driven by trends or fame, but instead is fueled by the personal drive to create great art, inspire connection and cultivate community. Those qualities are at the root of the band’s longevity and lasting connection with fans. Corona Theatre Tuesday, August 2, 2022 To purchase your tickets visit: www.evenko.ca
