Bo Koster of My Morning Jacket has a guilty pleasure. He is a Hanson fan.
At the SxSW site, Koster says that, "A friend of mine used to play bass with this Oklahoma City Trio. He swore by their musicianship and told me that they really know how to put it down"."Every time I think of them, I think of that movie Slapshot starring Paul Newman (a classic). They should dress up as the Hanson brother from that movie, that would be sweet".
"But seriously, these kids have grown up, and have been taking their music very seriously their whole lives from what I understand".
"So, I'd be interested to see what kind of adults they've become and what kind of music they're making. Don't hate, or I'll mmmmm bop you on your head".
Both Hanson and My Morning Jacket will play SxSW in Austin in March.
My Morning Jacket will perform at the Austin Music Hall at 11pm on March 13.
Hanson will play The Cedar Door in Brazos St on Saturday March 15 at 1am.
