HANSON: Before You Burnout

May 29, 2020 | HANSON

This week has been all about the Continental Breakfast EP, and going from song ideas to finished recordings. Every creative project presents its own set of challenges and this year the biggest one might simply be length. There is a huge difference between recording five songs and recording seven, and it is more than simply getting them written, but being able to stay both productive and flexible when much of the music is being written and recorded with little or no pre-production or time to collect your thoughts.  We have deep love of recording this way, but it is an exercise driven by instinct, and you can only operate without a road map for so long before you simply burnout.    
 
Continental Breakfast (in Bed)
  • Dressed in Brown Eyes
  • Miss You Like Crazy
  • Everyday
  • All I Know
  • Good Days
  • Change
  • ???
If you have been checking the Hanson.net blog every day and watching the CBIB Sound Bites, you have heard clips and parts from almost every song, but it is still fun to look at the titles side by side and get a feel for the storyies and messages captured within.
 
We hope you have all been enjoying the HANSON Time Podcast. Yesterday we posted our fourth episode and this theme went back two decades to the 2.0 EP.  We love getting the community involved in each episode both in picking members from different parts of the globe to join us in a conversation on each episode, but also getting the full community to vote on themes.  We are going to be continuing to post new episodes every Thursday through June, with the themes you voted on that you'd like to hear, and by association the music you would like us to play.
 
For 20 years, Hanson.net has been about bringing people together all around the world. We won’t be on the road touring for some months, but we're gonna keep sharing all the creative projects we're building.

Isaac, Taylor And Zac

I am curious when the ep will be available and when the merchandise will be mailed that we ordered.

Loving what you’re doing and the songs are sounding great! Super excited to get this EP in the mail. But don’t push yourselves to burnout. If you need a break take it. We’ll still love you just the same.

Beautiful music is lots of work. Yes, we are all excited for the new ep but, heck take time to recharge your batteries.  

We are not going anywhere, take a break (nap, coffee break, spend time with wives, kids, etc)

In all seriousness, I hope things are going well. We didn't get a CBIB sound byte on Friday (and they have been progressively shorter and posted later).  Please take time to do what you need to keep the passion alive.

No need to burn the candle at both ends.  I'm capable of waiting (somewhat) patiently.  I know I'll be all smiles when the EP is all done and playing on repeat here in Wisconsin so,...no worries.   Thanks for all you do!
