Cory Hanson

Southern California native Cory Hanson isn't the sort of musician to let the grass grow beneath him. The singer/guitarist played an auxiliary role in numerous bands before settling into a more stable gig making rugged psychedelia with Wand. In addition to his full-time work with Wand and occasional toned-down duo work with Ty Segall, Hanson releases solo albums that can be bucolic and introspective like 2021's Pale Horse Rider or more in keeping with Wand's high-energy weirdness, as is the case on Hanson's 2023 solo effort Western Cum.
