| -Live from the Teenspot May 07, 1998 More than anything else, the crowd, however, wanted Zac -- at 11, he is the youngest and apparently the cutest of the Grammy nominees, and despite his age, he led the pop parade behind a drum kit three times his size. Baby-Ts with Zac's likeness poked through the audience. "I Love Zac" signs waved everywhere, and the bravest fans went so far as to magic-marker his name on their arms. -Vh1.com Hanson Promise Rock Edge For Fifth Album Despite Hanson's teen appeal, the group has earned respect from an unlikely source: Grateful Dead guitarist Bob Weir. He shared a stage with the brothers in February at the New York club Wetlands, when the trio, who happened to be in town, were brought to Weir's show by their manager. "That was easily the best 12-year-old drummer I've ever played with," Weir said of Zachary. "It's impossible not to see how talented they are, and how far their potential goes." - [email protected] about the Life Beat show Summer 2003 Zac's maturity is not only physically evident but his musicality and breadth has also expanded. The audience was delighted to see him perform both harmonica and guitar and sing lead. I have a feeling Zac will continue to surprise us with his talent. -Chart Attack LIVE: Hanson Tuesday October 14, 2003 "As well, each brother was given a solo turn on stage, wherein Zac proved himself to be the indie rock Dennis Wilson (i.e. the hidden talent) of the band" -Tag NYC online Authenticity Through the Lens of Music Sept 28, 2004 The relationship between Zac and the piano during the melodic performance of Broken Angel is reminiscent of Coldplay�s Chris Martin�s yearning vocals. A possible new direction of their music, Broken Angel certainly reveals the versatility and depth of this band. -New York Post April 20, 2004 "Underneath" - 3CG Records Out of 4 stars they rated Underneath 3 stars What make this album so good is the way the Hansons have mastered their instruments: Isaac is a fine guitarist, and Taylor's piano work and Zac's drumming are top shelf. |
