GLEN HANSARD & MARKETA IRGLOVA

Soundtrack to the Motion Picture Film "Once"

2007-08-13

Hansard is well known from his Irish Rock band “The Frames,” but he and Czech singer Irglova put an album out together a year ago entitled Swell Season. The two not only sing this soundtrack, but star in this low-budget indie film, which won the “World Cinema Audience Award” at the 2007 Sundance Festival. The soundtrack contains 13 songs originally written and preformed by the two—usually as a duo but sometimes solo. –Pete
