Framing Hanley

Framing Hanley formed in 2007 and went on hiatus from 2015-2018 before reforming. They have released four albums: The Moment (2007), A Promise To Burn (2010), The Sum Of Who We Are (2014) and Envy (2020). 
 Framing Hanley have both captivated and cultivated a diehard audience since emerging in the early aughts. Renowned for powerhouse performances, they also shined as the rare dynamic force equally comfortable on a bill with either Good Charlotte or Sick Puppies. At the same time, their evolution can be audibly traced through a series of fan favorite albums, namely The Moment [2007], A Promise To Burn [2010], The Sum Of Who We Are [2014], and Envy [2020]. The latter marked their return following a period of dormancy, paving the way for “Start A Fire,” “Say Less,” and the recent “Hear Me Now Redux” featuring wrestling legend Jeff Hardy. They parlayed this energy into writing and recording throughout 2024. “We had initially taken a break, because we wanted to focus on our families,” Nixon goes on. “It was a benefit to have that space. When we did get back together, we picked up where we left off. It felt great.” Together, they expanded the sonic palette and crafted the 2025 single “Mean It.” Evoking the signature ebb and flow of classic Framing Hanley, the track layers airy guitar echoes over a robust beat. Emotion weighs heavy on the chugging palm-muted riff and gives way to a chantable chorus, “There’s violence in silence. Hit me like you mean it.”
