Tonight: The Swell Season

Who: The Swell Season featuring 2008 Oscar winners Glen Hansard & Marketa Irglova

What: Performing selections from the soundtrack of the film, Once (and perhaps some songs from The Frames too?)

Where: The Allen Theatre in Cleveland's Playhouse Square

When: Tonight @ 8:00pm, where Damien Dempsey will be opening


Why
: What else do you have to do on Sunday night...well, yeah, it does happen to be Mother's Day ;) But, most come out because these songs are so touching and beautiful and you know you want to hear Glen utter "tanks" (thanks) in person.

(mp3) The Swell Season - Into The Mystic (Van Morrison Cover) Hope to hear this one tonight!

How was the gig? I saw Swell Season in Portland earlier in the tour. They were awesome. I posted a review at my blog at http://isorski.blogspot.com/2008/04/concert-review-swell-season.html.

Also, NPR interviewed Glen and Marketa recently and you can hear it at http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=90093038&sc=emaf.
