Between Two Shores (LP)

Following up 2015's GRAMMY nominated Didn't He Ramble, and his 2012 solo debut Rhythm and Repose, this ten-track collection was produced by Hansard himself for the first time. The culmination of more than six years of writing and recording, Between Two Shores came together in only a matter of weeks.

Hansard is a founding member of The Frames who celebrated 25 years as a band in 2015. He is one half of The Swell Season, which also
features pianist Marketa Irglova. Together in 2007 they wrote the music for and starred in the movie 'Once'.

The song "Falling Slowly" from the film was awarded the Academy Award for Best Original song. In 2013 the film was adapted for Broadway as 'Once, The Musical', winning eight Tony Awards including the top musical prize itself and an Olivier award in London for outstanding achievement in music.
