May 24^th 2017 - In celebration of the band’s 25^th Anniversary, multi-Grammy nominated pop-rock trio HANSON officially announced their extensive Middle Of Everywhere 25^th Anniversary World Tour earlier this spring with concerts quickly selling out in Europe, North America and Australia. Today the group is announcing a new leg of the tour, which will take them across Latin America starting in mid August, including concerts in Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, Peru and Chile. The band kicked off the world tour headlining their own rapidly growing The Hop Jam Beer and Music Festival on May 21^st in Tulsa, OK.
 
Coinciding with their benchmark 25th year together, over which the group has released 6 studio albums and sold over 16 million albums, later this year HANSON will also be releasing Middle Of Everywhere - The Greatest Hits, a comprehensive collection which includes hit singles “Mmmbop”, “Where’s The Love”, “Weird”, “This Time Around”, “If Only”, “Save Me” “Penny And Me”, “Thinking ‘Bout Somethin’”, “Get The Girl Back”, plus their brand new single “I Was Born”.
 
“Making music together for 25 years is a milestone that we had to acknowledge, and what better way to do it than with an anniversary tour and greatest hits album,” said keyboardist Taylor Hanson. Added guitarist Isaac Hanson, “The response the tour so far has blown us away, and we are really looking forward to bringing the tour to fans Latin America to celebrate this important benchmark”.
 
Besides HANSON’s 25^th anniversary, 2017 is also the 20^th anniversary of their debut release Middle Of Nowhere, lead by the iconic single “Mmmbop”, which introduced the group to the world. The tour will feature performances of the group’s most widely known material alongside fan favorites encompassing their extensive catalog since their iconic debut.
 
Founded in 1992, the trio of brothers began performing classic rock ‘n roll and soul music, and writing original material, crafting a unique blend of harmonies and organic soulful pop-rock. The group took the world by storm with their debut major release in 1997, ushering in a string of top 40 singles and establishing them as one of the world’s leading artists
 
In 2003, the group founded their own independent 3CG Records, starting a new era for the band with their #1 independent album Underneath, featuring hit single “Penny And Me”, positioning them among the most successful independent bands to date. Since then, HANSON has released 3 studio albums under their label, toured the world cultivating a vibrant global fanbase engaged by their dynamic live performances, and released an ongoing stream of special products direct to their devout fan community.
 
In 2013, the group diversified its brand with the founding of their Hanson Brothers Beer Company, and in 2014 added The Hop Jam Beer and Music Festival based in their hometown of Tulsa, OK, which brings together artists and brewers from all over the world, culminating in one of the country’s leading Craft Beer and Music Festivals with 40,000 in attendance, occurring this year on May 21^st in Tulsa. The Middle Of Everywhere Tour showcases more than two decades of music in a celebratory world tour, alongside new music that will be followed by a further release in 2018.
