HANSON: Life Is A Stage

Sep 25, 2025 | Hanson

Life is a stage…well, so is an actual stage. In our case we have spent a lot of time bringing our energy to actual stages around the world and this past week, we had a great time across the Midwest with a few shows (and stages). As an artist it’s never good form to pic favorites when it comes to cities and music fans, but we cannot deny there is always a lot of energy in the middle of the US of A. From Michigan to Illinois and back to our home state, right on the border of OK and TX we had some amazing crowds this past week. We saw some familiar faces of course with many folks traveling a bit to meet up with the traveling roadshow, but mostly we got a feel for the local flavor and it was well worth the trip. 

With a few decades of music every show has a chance to jump around the history books quite a bit and this leaves us more options than we can fit into any one show when we go to put the set list together. We had a few special requests which came through Hnet PM’s or online and some in person and though we cannot always fulfill every request, it was fun to mix it up a bit, after all that’s what makes live music unlike anything else, you have to be there! 

As always we want to thank you for making your way to see us and reminding us with each nights event the power of music to bring us all together. There are more stories to tell and more being made with each show, thanks for going along for the ride. Have a great week. 

Thanks For Listening - Isaac, Taylor and Zac

The Michigan shows were so much!! We loved when you read our song request signs. Maybe one day our dream of hearing Lost Without You will come true! Until then, I will cherish when Taylor made it come true at BTTI! You guys are the best! Can't wait to see another show!!

I was part of that "20% Oklahomans" in Durant! : )  Great show and great set list, especially loved hearing Strong Enough To Break acoustic. I noticed that your setlists varied from show to show and it was fun to see what changes were made to the set list. Thanks for adding an Oklahoma show to the mix.

The Midwest loves you! Thank you for another magical evening. Blessed to have won a M&G in New Buffalo. Still on a 'Hanson high' almost a week later! Thank you for not actually having a quiet season 😜🤗

I loved seeing both your Michigan shows! The energy was awesome! DJ Taylor was great. The best part was celebrating my childhood best friend turning 40 with you guys! Hard to believe we fell in love with y'all around age 12 and we are still huge fans! Thank you for all the years of music and memories!
