HANSON: Inspiration

Apr 18, 2025 | Hanson

This week, we wax poetic a bit on the nature of music and inspiration. As music makers we have had the amazing privilege of making things we love, and looking for inspiration to put into the music we share. This inspiration can come from anywhere, the key is to keep an open ear, because an unexpected sound or thought could spark a whole new perspective and a song for the ages.  
 
This week's image is a stack of guitars and bass’s, it makes us think of the many different tools of the musical trade that come to bear when building new songs. Just like inspiration, you never know what creative instrument or space could be the vessel of the next creation, and that is very true on the songs featured on the underneath album which we are highlighting with this year's Underneath Experience live album for members.
 
For all the LP lovers, we’re excited the Middle Of Everywhere collection is back in stock in vinyl, also another great example of the many elements that come together to create a body of work and the way in which formats and different mechanisms can change our experience. With our favorite albums (even greatest hits collections) the whole is often greater than the sum of the parts. 
 
Thanks for listening

Isaac, Taylor and Zac

I’m excited for the album! I think it will be great! The Underneath Complete was one of the best shows I’ve been to! Thanks for everything and Happy Easter!

As someone who hasn't seen a live show since 2022 (The Hanson kind) I really appreciate having a new live album!!

I'd better appreciate newsletters without news, as next year we won't have even them.

@jaquaida I agree with you with both posts - Newsletters tell no information on what is happening and another underneath album which I count 4 albums to do with underneath  Underneath Acoustic, Underneath, Underneath Complete and this new one Underneath Experience Live 

I don’t really need another album as they have the same songs on them and I don’t really like live albums as you hardly hear them sing cause of people talking loud or screaming which I find very rude

I rather spend the money and actually see them in concert
