Hank Green

Hank Green started making music as part of his online presence with the Vlogbrothers channel he co-founded with his brother John in 2007. His songs often have a direct, conversational quality, like 'DFTBA (feat. Michael Aranda)' or 'Video Game Books,' that feels connected to the community he built through video blogs.

He's released a range of tracks, from the earnest 'Looking For Alaska' to the more playful 'Accio Deathly Hallows.' While he's primarily a solo performer, he sometimes works with other musicians, as on 'Marilyn Hanson (ft. The Perfect Strangers).' His music doesn't fit neatly into one genre, often mixing folk ideas with straightforward pop structures.

In 2010, a collaboration with Peter Hollens on 'The Hobbit Drinking Medley' gained significant attention online. Green has performed live with a rotating group of musicians, including drummer Adam Levy and guitarist Rusty Clanton, but the focus usually stays on the songs themselves rather than a band identity.
