Many of you may remember a small Irish film Once staring Glen Hansard from The Frames and Markéta Irglová, a Czech singer and pianist. If you don't remember it or have not seen I suggest you do as soon as possible. The film was released in 2007 and since Hansard and Irglová have enjoyed substantial success, including an Oscar for their song "Falling Slowly" and the formation of a duo under the name The Swell Season. Since the conception of The Swell Season they have released a LP entitled Strict Joy in 2009 as well as capturing their trials and tribulations on film. On October 21, 2011 a documentary called The Swell Season will be released, depicting the life of Hansard and Irglová off the heals of Once til late 2010. Check out the The Swell Season Movie website for screening information and release dates in your area but in the meantime you can watch the trailer below and "In These Arms" from Strict Joy below.
