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.
