So, before the launch of their new project, let us find out more about the American band’s net worth and career.
Inception and Early Years
The HANSON band hails from Tulsa in Oklahoma and first came into existence with brothers Isaac, Taylor, and Zac singing Cappella music and recording covers of popular classic songs. Their very first appearance as a band happened back in 1992 in the Mayfest Art Festival in Tulsa under the name the Hanson brothers. It was in 1993 that they changed the name of the band to HANSON and recorded demo album Boomerang in 1994 (released 1995) and MMMBop in 1995 (released 1996). After their performance in the South by Southwest music festival in Austin, Texas they were signed by manager Christopher Sabec. HANSON became a worldwide sensation with the release of their very first major-label album Middle of Nowhere, in 1997.
Commercial Success
HANSON’s debut album sold nearly 10 million copies worldwide and earned them the 1998 Grammy nominations for Record of the Year, Best New Artist, and Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal. Following the success, HANSON released their first-holiday album, Snowed In (1997), and went on a highly successful concert, the Albertane Tour. It also led the band to release their first live album, Live From Albertane, as well as two documentaries titled Tulsa, Tokyo and the Middle of Nowhere and The Road to Albertane. The band’s official biography Hanson: The Official Book was also released in 1998 and held the 9th spot on the New York Times Best Sellers (nonfiction) list.
