Hanson Wishes You a "MMMmerry" Christmas With a New Holiday Album
Two decades ago, tweens and teens fell in love with boy-band, Hanson. The group, comprised of three brothers, released its hit single "MMMBop" in 1997 and now, 20 years later, is out with a new Christmas album.
"Finally It's Christmas" is out now, and Zac, Taylor, and Issac Hanson join Cheddar to dish on the new album and how the industry has changed throughout their career. The three are grateful for the song "MMMBop" and see it as the start of their career and journey together. They were excited to release a second Christmas album because their fans enjoy their take on the classics as well as on new jams.
Hanson developed its own private music label in 2003 and explained how the industry has changed since the group first started. With streaming and music rights changing, they say it is important to have agency over your music and albums.
