رونوشت کامل Hanson

00:00:01 Speaker 1: Mario a little bit. It's up. You're on Mario Lopez joining me now on Zoom. Three time Grammy nominated artist Isaac Zack and Taylor Hanson. Welcome back to the show. Guys, How you doing well? Thanks for having us man, Nice to see you too. Man. That is a nice looking Zoom right there. You guys fit perfectly well lit. Are you in a club? Like? What's going on right there? Is that somebody's crib or he had somebody's house, the studio, studio control room. It's got that studio vibe. I love it. I love it. So you guys were the Russian dolls and the mass singer. What made you want to do it? How did you pick that costume? And did you tell anyone? We We did tell Army family, which is surprisingly large. My wife was eight months pregnant at the time, so it was hard to explain to the kids why dad was leaving for basically a month without telling them something real had to be like, yeah, I'm going on those TV shows training to go on the next SpaceX rocket. He said, I'm going to be for a while, but it'll be cool when it's done, going to space without you. That didn't work now. The producers called us and they said, hey, we want you to be the first group. We've never done this, and honestly that kind of parked our interest, like, oh, first, that's fun um. And then the idea of kind of keeping people guessing that very quickly came into the idea, and that's where Russian dolls came from. There were a lot of other ideas, but how do you find something that kind of intuitively people go, how many are those? How many of them you do with the whole show? I mean, one of the things that pushed us over the edge was it's about singing. You know, we've since we were kids, we've been singing, even harmonizing, and we felt like we could bring something different to a show like this. You know, it's all all been solo performers. Be the first group and and with that, you know, you kind of lean into your strengths and you know, arrange the songs in a way that that is, you know, caters to that kind of throw people off the scent by leaning, you know, different guys singing lead on different songs. So we we kind of like the whole idea, and honestly, most times in our history you're on tour, you're traveling, you're promoting a project, and you can't really take opportunities that come up that are out of the ordinary multi week yeah, exactly, many weeks you know, doing something, you know like that. So it was it was something that just seemed to aligne. No, it was great. And then all you guys have kids. I'm sure they got such a kick and and thrill out of that. You mentioned your song choices um Bruno Mars, Jason Deruloh I love all the choices there. What would have been your song for the semis oh Man, Well, we were going to try and do ah. I think we were trying to do a boys to men's Yeah, yes, we we love the idea of some of these groups that were great vocal groups, but we were trying to keep those for later in the season so that you weren't taking them off the list of people who they were guessing, right, And as soon as you do boys Men, they know it's some boys men, but they're one of those right now, still perform as a trio and great voices. Loves being compared to them because that's such a huge compliment. Yeah, and there were definitely Wisdoman and then some other classics that we felt like we'd just get people moving. We were still trying to swing a big song, see if we could get at well you you've got great taste. I like all those artists. A nice job, gentlemen. UM new album is against the World. Tell me about these songs. So the records just started coming out. It's releasing in a unique way. We're releasing it one song at a time, so it's building UM and then every month essentially all year long and until it finally is complete. The album is complete, so people sort of get it like seven singles, you know, single after single. UM. First track is called Anale. It's super upbeat, kind of feels like the start of a journey. We wanted people to kind of it's summertime. People are, you know, thinking about getting out, kind of wanting to something to smile about. UM. But the record overall, as you go through it, people discover I mean the records all sort of about taking on challenges, kind of waiting through things. UM, you know, and the record title even just this idea that you know, anything you do that is sort of important or you know, oftentimes you feel like you're up against challenges, but music pulls you through that connection with others pulls you through that kind of finding a way through the craziness and through the challenges is what the journey is all about. The title could also be taking on the world's challenges, but it was a little too long, didn't really have a ring. Do you have a novel? See? I prefer it to mean don't let yourself be defined by the world, because I think we see right now, especially because everyone has been separated in their corners for a year, that we're letting ourselves kind of let our feeds and and the fanatical people kind of define what's okay in the world or how it's it's okay to feel about yourself. Do you think what I think? Do you feel how I feel? When you say I'm against the world, it's I'm against being defined by the world. I'm defined by me. I'm defined by the people I choose to be with. I'm defined by the person I choose to be, how I choose to treat people, and how I choose to world. It's so important how you see yourself. Um, And that's really what this first song, Anely is all about. Sort of the person I want to be deep. I like it, man, I like and what about what about touring? Are you making plans to get back on the road or so the tour there are there are live events coming. We just announced they're gonna be shows every month that will be live stream and with limited person tickets, kind of broadcasting from our hometown in Tulsa, so said Live August September October. Yeah, those shows. You know, people can come, you know, make the trick, come to our h q. Um. There's a few ship tickets left. I mean they are going super fast, um for all those months, but streaming tickets available. And then we're actually pointing towards next year is really going to be the full you know, make the lap around the world as everything is starting to open up and kind of get back to normal. We're just I feel like this is the ramp into a really active next you know, twelve or fourteen months. Good for you guys, man. I like that you're keeping it in the family and uh, you're you're you're keeping it moving. I love it. Um. Speaking of which, I know you all got pretty big families. Any musicians in the next generation, there are a smattering of them, I mean you know, there's definitely obviously a lot of creativity, and Taylor zach Or actually quite a good artist beyond just being artists. I need a little bit of a fallback this thing exactly. But but you know, each of us have you know, some a few more musically inclined kids and a few that are not so interested. It's an extroverts, you know. I would be very surprised if someone didn't choose an artistic path or a musical path, but you just never know. I mean, I have a two month old at home, so I love with that guy. Congratulations on that, and congratulations on everything, gentlemen. Always nice to see you guys. Listen to Annalie on iHeart Radio or wherever you stream music. Isaac Zac, Taylor, thanks checking in, Thanks a lot with Mario Litlepez.
