Hanna-McEuen

Duo Are Country
Legend Legacy

Country duo Hanna-McEuen’s has just released their self-titled debut album, released August 16, 2005 on Dreamworks Records. This week, these first cousins and sons of identical twin sisters (their fathers are the founding members of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band) will take a break from their summer tour to fly out to Los Angeles to film the video for their new single “Ocean” with the acclaimed Malloys. The family film making team has made award-winning surfing documentaries (including “Thicker Than Water” with musician Jack Johnson), feature films, and music videos for Metallica, The White Stripes and The Foo Fighters, among others.

Hanna McEuen’s new single “Ocean” is a stirring acoustic ballad that closes their upcoming album. Jonathan McEuen says, “The song is about a dream that can come true and will come true. The more we played the song on tour, the more people were touched by it.”

The twosome will celebrate the release of their debut album when they perform on The Tonight Show (NBC) on August 18th. The duo and their strong musical lineage will be complimented onstage by Jesse Siebenberg (offspring of Supertramp drummer Bob Siebenberg) on drums and Teddy Jack Russell (son of revered session man Leon Russell) on bass.
