Jordan Taylor Hanson (born March 14, 1983) is an American musician best known as a member of the pop rock band Hanson.[1] He sings both lead and back-up vocals, and plays keyboard, percussion (including drums, bongos and the tambourine), guitar, harmonica, and piano. He is also the lead singer of supergroup Tinted Windows.


Hanson was born in Tulsa, Oklahoma, the second oldest child of Clarke Walker Hanson and Diana Frances Hanson.

Taylor Hanson is a co-founder and co-CEO of 3CG Records, along with brothers Isaac and Zac Hanson.
It was announced in early 2009 that Hanson, along with former Smashing Pumpkins guitarist James Iha, Cheap Trick drummer Bun E. Carlos and Fountains Of Wayne bassist Adam Schlesinger, formed a new band called Tinted Windows. The band played their first publicized gig at SXSW in Austin, Texas on March 20, 2009. Their first album was released on April 21, 2009.

Hanson met his wife, Natalie Bryant, after a performance in Atlanta, Georgia in August 2000, during Hanson's This Time Around Tour. They were introduced by one of the band's roadies. After dating for two years, the two were married on June 8, 2002 at the Ida Cason Chapel in Pine Mountain, Georgia. The couple currently have five children: Jordan Ezra "Ezra" Hanson (2002), Penelope "Penny" Anne Hanson (2005), River Samuel (2006), Viggo Moriah (2008) and Wilhelmina "Willa" Jane Hanson (2012).
