Corbin/Hanner, also known as Gravel and the Corbin/Hanner Band, was an American country music group from Ford City, Pennsylvania, founded by singer-songwriters Bob Corbin and David Hanner. The Corbin/Hanner band began in 1979 with both Corbin and Hanner serving as vocalists and guitarists, along with Al Snyder (keyboards), Kip Paxton (bass guitar), and Dave Freeland (drums). The quintet released two albums for Alfa Records before disbanding in 1984. Corbin and Hanner reunited in 1990 as a duo, recording two more albums for Mercury Records, followed by four more albums on independent labels before disbanding in 2000. Although they never reached Top 40, the group charted eleven singles on the Billboard country charts: six as the Corbin/Hanner Band, and five more as Corbin/Hanner. Their highest charting singles as a band were 1981's "Livin' the Good Life" and 1982's "Everybody Knows I'm Yours" both at No. 46, while their highest as a duo was 1992's "I Will Stand by You" at No. 49.
