The Hanson Brothers were a Canadian punk rock band formed in 1984 in Victoria and later based in Vancouver.
The group included John and Rob Wright and Tom Holliston, all members of the punk rock band Nomeansno.
The Hanson Brothers' band name references characters in the cult ice hockey film Slap Shot.
Examples of songs from this era are "Ya Little Creep" and "Bad," two Kerr-era NoMeansNo songs with songwriting credited to the Hanson Brothers; the former appears on the 1991 compilation Clam Chowder and Ice Vs. Big Macs and Bombers, and the latter on The Sky Is Falling and I Want My Mommy, a collaborative LP with Jello Biafra.
Also in 2000, John Wright, in his Johnny Hanson character, recorded an instructional video regarding homebrewing beer.
