Glen's got a solo record called Rhythm and Repose coming out on ANTI june 18/19
Glen Hansard will release his first solo album Rhythm and Repose on June 15th via Plateau records. Best known for his work with The Frames and The Swell Season, this will be Hansard's first new material since 2009's Strict Joy with The Swell Season.
The album, recorded and produced by Patrick Dillett and Thomas Bartlett, will also feature the musical talents of Brad Albetta, Ray Rizzo, Nico Muhly and half of Bruce Springsteen's current horn section. Swell Season collaborator Marketa Irglova has also contributed to the record.
Hansard is celebrated as the principal songwriter and vocalist/guitarist for The Frames. He garnered a reputation as not only an unparalleled front man, but also for his dedicated following and his grounded, real-life songs. Whether he’s busking the streets of Dublin, where he got his start, or at the Hollywood Bowl, Hansard is always earnest and in-the-moment.

Glen's new video and first official single from the new record is up:
Glen Hansard
'Love Don't Leave Me Waiting'
APRIL 17, 2012
In his new video, Irish musician Glen Hansard goes tropical, finding warm bliss and plenty of sunshine in the clip for "Love Don't Leave Me Waiting." Reveals director Heidi Rose, "It's like going out on a trip to an exotic island: It's summer, it's full of hope, it's exciting, it's alive, it makes you want to dance and sing along. That is what Glen's 'Love Don't Leave Me Waiting' feels like. We shared this feeling with a group of young men and women, who very spontaneously and generously got involved in the making of our video." The Swell Season member and Frames frontman will release his solo debut, Rhythm and Reponse, on June 19th through Anti-.
