Polgram Australia's Hanson Feature on the Live Album and Video
(October 18, 1998)
Visit Polygram Australia for the latest Australian-related Hanson news.
Gimme Some Lovin'/Shake Your Tailfeather off of Live From Albertane.
Just over a year ago, three brothers from Tulsa, Oklahoma firmly implanted 'MMMBop' into just about everyone's brain. Since then, they've travelled the world, appeared on countless TV shows and magazine covers and even visited Australia for a far too brief promotional visit.
In the meantime they've racked up an incredible 12 million album sales. You know them as Isaac, Taylor and Zac and the world knows them as Hanson. They have sparked a movement of positivity and fun with their music - and now we get to experience their live shows.
We here in Australia only got a brief look at Hanson live with their acoustic performances during the promotional visit. For those of you who saw their appearance in Melbourne and those of you who were lucky enough to see them on a ferry in Sydney, you'll agree that this is no made up pop band - these boys know how to play and know how to rock an audience.
Finally we all get to see the band live, on their new video 'The Road To Albertane', released in Decemeber. And then there's the CD coming out a month earlier on November 9th. All the classic tracks are on here - 'MMMBop' of course, 'I Will Come To You', 'Man From Milwaukee' and 'Where's The Love'. There's also a great cover of 'Gimme Some Lovin / Shake A Tail Feather'. The album was recorded on their recent North American tour. When will the band be in Australia for a tour? Unfortunately no news yet - but be sure to check back with us regularly, 'cause the minute there is a tour happening we'll be posting the news all over this site!
