November 19, 2009
The multiple Dublin music scenes, Whelan’s as a part of strong friendships, being or not the Godfather of this music scene, a past with The Frames and a future without The Swell Season.
Living your life in opposition to other things…I don’t think it really helps to obtain a great, happy existence
Who: Glen Hansard (Dublin, Ireland)
Latest record: Strict Joy (Anti)
A good chat about…: In part II Glen talks about how he feels about being titled “The Godfather” of the Irish scene, the TV show “Other voices”, and the evolution of bands.
A good chat about…: In part III we ask Glen how he feels about his present, past and future between The Frames and the Swell Season and a different irish band that he’d like to play with for a day…

Our favourite video: star star**
Where we met: Odessa
Behind the scenes: We met Glen by chance the night of Mark Geary’s concert at Odessa. He popped up on stage to duet with Mark on a couple of songs, and it was so good! After the show we decided to give it a try and ask him for an interview. We thought he’d say no. We were wrong. And happy.

These guys never get enough credit.. Best band from Ireland by a mile, think Super Furry Animals - My Bloody Valentine - Noah and The Whale - The Stone Roses all mixed together.. Ace Irish band
