Glen Hansard & Marketa Irglova

This is the most popular tag for Glen Hansard & Markéta Irglová, though the spelling is not entirely accurate. Please correct your tags (use "The Swell Season" unless it's a live performance featuring only Glen Hansard and Markéta Irglová - in which case use "Glen Hansard & Markéta Irglová"). Glen Hansard (frontman of The Frames) and Czech singer and pianist Markéta Irglová released their first album, The Swell Season, in Ireland in April 2006 - a collection of delicate, moving piano-led ballads, with wonderful cello and violin sounds. Listen to songs at: www.myspace.com/theswellseason. Hansard and Markéta starred in the film 'Once' by writer/director John Carney (a former bass player of The Frames). Many songs of The Swell Season are used in this film, that has won the World Cinema Audience Award at Sundance 2007.
