Hanson think 'MMMBop' wasn't a ''shabby way'' to start their career and see their debut as a ''pretty good first chapter'' to their 15 years in the music industry.
Hanson think 'MMMBop' wasn't a "shabby way" to start their career.
The Oklahoma-based band - who had a worldwide hit with the pop song in 1997 - admitted they see their debut as a "pretty good first chapter" to their 15 years in the music industry.
Isaac - who is joined in the group by brothers Taylor and Zac - exclusively told BANG Showbiz: "Every book has a story, every book has a first chapter and for us that's a pretty good first chapter. It was not...

American rapper Pitbull, pop rock band Train
and singer-songwriter Richard Marx were the last foreign acts that
staged sold out shows in Manila for 2011. And as the Philippine capital
continues to rise as one of the most preferred concert destinations in
Asia, a lineup of big names on the international music scene is set to
make the concert circuit much more alive.
If Katy Perry and Simple Plan excite concertgoers, they would be more
thrilled to hear that Avril Lavigne, James Ingram, Edwin Mccain and
Bryan Adams are scheduled to set foot Philippine shores to treat music
aficionados. To top that, ’90s boy bands like Hanson and A1 are also
coming here.
In January, the only female recording artist to have five singles

Fearne Cotton once penned a love letter to Hanson brother Taylor begging him to marry her.
The Radio 1 DJ hasn't always been so cool and hip - she suffered the same embarrassing teenage crushes as the rest of us.
And despite being a TV presenter from an early age, Fearne couldn't
get to grips with this particular celebrity, who stole her heart with a
rousing rendition of pop masterpiece MmmBop.
During her show on Thursday, Fearne's five closest pals presented
alongside her as part of Radio 1's 'Bring your friend to work day', and
one snitch couldn't wait to dish the dirt.
Fearne had to play Truth or Dare to decide...

We catch up with the band, more than a decade after Mmmbop
Hanson
celebrate 15 years in music in 2012, and while it's already been 13
years since their global number-one hit Mmmbop stormed the charts, the
brothers are still going strong.
We met up with them this week at
the end of their UK tour in London, and caught up with older brother
Isaac on music, adulthood, their appearance in Katy Perry's Last Friday Night video, and Janet Devlin's disastrous X Factor performance of their huge hit.
You guys are touring on your fifth studio album, Shout It Out. What’s different this time around?When
we first came out in the late 90s,...

Hanson hit the stage on Saturday night singing Waiting for This to the delight of hundreds of fans who stood in the brisk air for the free show. The group, along with Cody Simpson, Greyson Chance and others hit the stage for the Salvation Army's Rock the Red Kettle concert. The free performance was at the Universal City Walk in Universal City for fans to enjoy.
The second annual Rock the Red Kettle was an opportunity to hear some great music and help the community. An offspring of the red kettle program seen in malls across America, the audience at CityWalk, as well as those watching from home, were asked to donate to help others. Whether it was five dollars of twenty five bucks, it was a chance to help others while sharing the stage.
As one of the favored...

Maynard —
I was on vacation for a week and a half, so I'm just catching up on all of the happenings in the beer world as I work my way back into working shape.
Here is a round up of some things that have been happening lately, plus some random musings.
Massachusetts is a hotbed of activity this year. Eight new breweries opened, and at least another is planned for early 2012.
One of those breweries, Jack's Abby Brewing of Framingham, has been quite busy, and has already started making some changes in its lineup.
They have recently announced they will not be brewing its Saxon Sons Pilsner and Red Tape Lager. Instead, they have introduced a brand-new beer. Called Jabby Brau Session Lager, a 4.5 percent alcohol by volume, easy drinking beer. I tried a sample of this beer, and...

Part 1
In the last 14 years we have traveled from Manila to Anaheim, from
Santiago to Amsterdam, all the while seeing places both grand and humble
along the way - in almost 40 countries, if you're counting. This year
we were determined to revisit and grow that list as we supported our
latest release Shout It Out. As the year comes to a close, with
tours on three continents I'd say we've made strides on our travel
agenda, earning a fair amount of miles along the way.
It feels like we haven't stopped...

After finally recovering from the ’90s pop music atrocities that kept songs stuck in our head for weeks or even years, boy band Hanson has found a reason to enter our lives again. The bros who shamelessly brought us “MmmBop” now have their own beer: “MmmHop.”
“We are soon going to be selling our own beer. I’m not joking — MMMhop IPA anyone?” drummer Zac Hanson said as he introduced the concept.
This is not the brothers’ first business endeavor. Hanson has its own independent music label and manages a stable of branded merchandise.
“It’s vital our fans have trust in everything Hanson do,” Zac added.
“A branded HANSON IPA beer concept is in the works under the moniker ‘MmmHops,’ ” adding that the idea “has been brewing for some time.”
The brothers were well known in...

(EndPlay Staff Reports) - Been thirsting for some Hanson lately? If you're 21 or older, then you can soon partake in the new beer from the brotherly trio band of the '90s – MMMHop.
No, that's not a typo. It's a play-on-words of the brother's breakout hit "MMM…bop."
Rolling Stone reported that the beer will be made available in 2012 and will be an Indian Pale Ale.
The brothers – Isaac, Taylor and Zac – were speaking at an event in England last month when they made the announcement, the UK's Express reported.
""It's vital our fans have trust in everything Hanson do. We are soon going to be selling our own beer. I'm not joking – MMMhop IPA anyone?" Zac told the crowd.
This isn't the first time the '90s pop band has ventured into branding themselves and creating products.

The chart-topping reign of the three Hanson brothers with flowing blond locks was regrettably (for some) short-lived, and odds are you haven't had much of them in your life lately. But whether you remember their late '90s smash MMMBop as the brain-burrowing scourge of that decade or as a jam "remarkably like a great 1969 Jackson 5 single" as rock critic extraordinaire Jonathan Gold once wrote, there is no denying it is infectious as chickenpox and so bubble gum sweet it could wreck your teeth through your ears.
For their newest project, the three brothers are changing up their...

I have to admit, I giggled a little when I heard this on 95.7 over the weekend: the nineties boy band Hanson Brothers will be making their own beer. Really? Beer? Home brews by celebrities are not uncommon, Def Leppard’s Joe Elliot’s Down ’n’ Outz for example and of course there was Madonna's famous stint on the wine bottles for her family's winery, Ciccone Vineyard in Suttons Bay. But the Hanson Brothers? After “bopping” around on the World Wide Web, I discovered that it is true. The name: MMMHop IPA, an India pale ale named after the group’s biggest—and I believe only hit—“MmmBop.” According to Express.co.uk, which broke the story, the Oklahoma band was speaking and performing some of its music at Oxford...

Remember Hanson? The young pop trio that were all the rage in the '90s are old enough to drink now--and they're making sure you know about it. The Hanson brothers, Isaac, Taylor and Zac recently announced that are releasing their own brand of beer. It's an India Pale Ale and it's called, aptly, "MmmHop."
We asked designers, students and creatives to send us some ideas of what the packaging for the new beer should look like. Here's what they came up with. Got ideas of your own? Send them tocreativityeds@creativity-online.com and...
