Hanson – Still Searching<\/strong><\/p>\n

It has been quite a year for Hanson.
\nWell, that is an understatement of course.
\nIt has been an amazing year.
\nIt has been a year full of new music, new ventures and new possibilities.
\n2013 has marked Hanson’s 21st<\/sup>\u00a0year as a band, but it\u2019s a year that has laid down foundations for the future as well as celebrating the past.<\/p>\n

During this year they have finished, promoted and toured with their 6th<\/sup> studio album Anthem<\/em>, as well as appearing at festivals, leading walks, hosting member\u2019s only events and launching Mmmhops into the world.<\/p>\n

They have travelled thousands of miles, seen thousands of people, taken hundreds of pictures and sung their hearts out a million times.<\/p>\n

As the New Year beckons we take this opportunity to look back in 12 moments at 2013 as it has been for Hanson.<\/p>\n

January<\/strong>: The beginning of the end of the recording of Anthem<\/em> and the first Back to the Island event in Jamaica.<\/p>\n

February<\/strong>: Hanson live stream the creation and recording of Anthem.<\/p>\n

March<\/strong>: Zac proclaims the album finished and a new look Hanson.net is launched.
\nOh and someone has a crazy birthday.<\/p>\n

April<\/strong>: The promotion of Anthem<\/em> and Get the Girl Back<\/em> begin.<\/p>\n

\"good_morning_america_17_june_2013_1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

May<\/strong>: Hanson day in Tulsa is marked with a listening party, show and the recording of the members EP with a choir of fans.<\/p>\n

June<\/strong>: Hanson celebrates with a 21st<\/sup> birthday show in NYC, followed by a special show to mark the release of Anthem.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"tay-3\"<\/a><\/p>\n

July<\/strong>: The UK promotion begins, The Sound of Light<\/em> EP is released, Hanson appears at the Mix Tape festival and the South American leg of the Anthem Tour is held.<\/p>\n

August<\/strong>: A little time is spent in the office. Hanson attends the Minnesota State Fair.
\nThe Live in New York<\/em> DVD is under construction.<\/p>\n

September<\/strong>: The Anthem Tour takes to the roads across North America with walks and members only events. Taylor performs a solo of lost Without You <\/em>and Zac performs Get so Low.<\/em><\/p>\n

October<\/strong>: Zac and Kate Hanson welcome baby George Abraham, \u00a0Mmmhops makes its debut in Chicago and the tour travels to Canada.<\/p>\n

November<\/strong>: Hanson Eat to the Beat and the Bee Gees classic Too Much Heaven<\/em> makes the set list.<\/p>\n

December<\/strong>: The European leg of the tour begins at The London Apple Store and the Beat the Street Tour bus travels to from Glasgow to Milan.\u00a0The band enjoys some down time until the New Year’s Eve show in Syracuse NY.<\/p>\n

Whilst the notes above cover in a nutshell the activities of Hanson over the past year, they go little way towards capturing the passion, drive, determination, energy and sheer hard work that have been poured into every possible minute and hour to make it happen.<\/p>\n

Imagining the miles travelled in a tour bus, with show after show, in all weathers and with commitments spread through the day from early until late, might foster some appreciation of the guts it takes to keep this show on the road.<\/p>\n

But knowing that it comes at the end of a year that has been full of innovation and creative endeavours of an extremely hands on nature, can only, surely, deepen the gratitude, respect and admiration that onlookers and fans of Hanson have for them.<\/p>\n

\"anthemtour_400x400_noribbon\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And if at the end of this year full of amazing moments, anyone wants to know more about what makes Hanson keep going or what drives them on into the future, just take a trip through the recently posted Hanson.net reporter interviews.<\/p>\n

Here they talk with candour and generosity about their professional life, offering real insight into the music, the lifestyle, the motivations and the future of their business.<\/p>\n

If anyone seriously wants to know what may lie ahead for Hanson in 2014, there are plenty of clues.<\/p>\n

Hanson talk of their aspirations, their understanding of the music industry, the best ways to deliver their music, the partnership between artist and fan, the continuation of the Take the Walk campaign and much more.<\/p>\n

\"back<\/a><\/p>\n

From these conversations, it is clear that Hanson look to the future.
\nThat the best song is the one not yet written and the best idea is the one not yet realised.
\nThere is always more to dream and imagine.
\nThere is always more to do and the day when enough is done may never come.<\/p>\n

And their reflections are all offered with the confidence, resilience, intelligence and wisdom of professionals who have been much more than a band for 21 years.<\/p>\n

As 2014 opens up its own moments and opportunities, we offer words from a song as inspiration and for company.<\/p>\n

It resounds with the images that have coloured 2013 and confirms that the New Year will draw Hanson and their fans further towards the<\/em> best and their<\/em> best \u2013 whatever that may prove to be.<\/p>\n

The Sound of Light\u00a0<\/em>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Never been enough, to be standing still<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Always had a taste for another thrill<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

When I hit a wall, when I\u2019m put to the test<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I always find it hard to ignore it<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

When I feel the heat I know I\u2019m on my way<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Just a little spark that burns so bright<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I’ll be on my feet \u2018til I reach the day<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I’ll be searching, searching for the sound of light<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve never feared the fire, never pined for rest<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Never had a need for an empty test<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

There is still a light that no man has touched<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I’ve<\/i><\/b>\u00a0got to see for myself how it\u2019s burning<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

When I feel the heat I know I\u2019m on my way<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Just a little spark that burns so bright<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I’ll be on my feet \u2018til I reach the day<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I’ll be searching, searching for the sound of light<\/em><\/strong>
\n<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Got to hear it<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

For you to know<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Cause I just can\u2019t tell what I\u2019m searching for<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been searching, searching for the sound<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
