BIOGRAPHY Taylor Hanson, born March 14, 1983, is one of the brothers that formed the pop rock band "Hanson" in Tulsa, Oklahoma in the 1990s. They are best known for their hit song "MMMBop".
The band, which was originally called "The Hanson Brothers," started out as three young boys who sang a capella and recorded tapes with oldies like "Rockin' Robin," "Splish Splash," and "Johnny B. Goode," as well pieces of their own material. Their first performance as a professional group took place in 1992 at the Mayfest arts festival in Tulsa. Blond hair, blue eyes, wears a necklace with The Star of David, a Cross, & a Soccer Ball, 6 foot 1 Hanson plays many instruments: keyboard, piano and tambourine.
He lived in Trinidad, Ecuador and Venezuela before moving with his family to Tulsa. His albums include: Boomerang (independent release, 1995), MMMBop (independent release, 1996) Middle of Nowhere (Mercury Records, March 1997), Snowed In (Mercury Records, Nov 18, 1997), I Will Come to You, single with previously unreleased "Cried" (Mercury Records, Nov 11, 1997) 3 Car Garage independent recordings 1996-1998 (Mercury Records, May 12 1998). The brothers left their record label, Island Records, due to conflict with the producers who felt their material was lacking quality and had refused over 80 songs from the band. The band now works under their own independent label, 3CG Records ("3 Car Garage Records"), named for the three-car garage in which their studio lies today. The label has distribution deals through ADA (Alternative Distribution Alliance) in the United States, Sony BMG in Asia, and various other distributors throughout the world.
During the struggle with their former label, Hanson signed with their current management company, 10th Street Entertainment, which also manages artists such as Meatloaf and Blondie. The band toured during the summer and fall of 2003 in support of Underneath Acoustic, which was composed of acoustic versions of songs from their then-forthcoming release, Underneath. The tour culminated on November 5, 2003 with a performance at the prestigious Carnegie Hall. View GALLERY:
