Everyone’s favorite longhaired band of brothers has returned with sleeker ’dos and a matured sound that brings them into the 21st century. Hanson’s 25th anniversary tour lands in Boston shortly after the band’s release of their Middle of Everywhere: The Greatest Hits compilation album. The group—which was first formed in 1992 by tween heartthrob brothers Isaac, Taylor and Zac—is best known for their infuriatingly catchy 1997 single “Mmmbop.” Fast-forward to today, this group of 30-something dads has 12 children between them, all while continuing to tour and produce music over the past two decades. Nostalgia and new beginnings come together during this trio’s world tour that stops at House of Blues on Oct. 1. / Julia Aparicio

Willie Nile will will bring his electrifying show to the City Winery Boston at One Canal Street.
