Early Life and Career

Isaac and his younger brothers, Taylor and Zac, started a band initially called The Hanson Brothers (later changed to just 'Hanson') in 1992.

On May 6, 1997, the band released Middle of Nowhere, their first album with a major label and their third studio album overall. The first single, "MMMBop", hit number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. May 6th has been declared "Hanson Day" in the brothers' hometown of Tulsa, OK in honor of the release of Middle of Nowhere.

Famous quotes containing the words early, life and/or career:

    “Never hug and kiss your children! Mother love may make your children’s infancy unhappy and prevent them from pursuing a career or getting married!” That’s total hogwash, of course. But it shows on extreme example of what state-of-the-art “scientific” parenting was supposed to be in early twentieth-century America. After all, that was the heyday of efficiency experts, time-and-motion studies, and the like.
    Lawrence Kutner (20th century)

    Viewed narrowly, all life is universal hunger and an expression of energy associated with it.
    Mary Ritter Beard (1876–1958)

    Each of the professions means a prejudice. The necessity for a career forces every one to take sides. We live in the age of the overworked, and the under-educated; the age in which people are so industrious that they become absolutely stupid.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
