Did'ya know that Glen Hansard also acts as the vocalist in the band called The Frames?

Taken from Wikipedia because it's 8am and no one expects anyone to explain anything coherent at 8am:

The Frames is an influential Irish band based mainly in Dublin. Founded in 1990, the group has released six albums and appeared in numerous music videos. The band's ex-bassist John Carney has become a film director, writing and directing the award-winning 2007 film Once, which stars the band's singer/guitarist Glen Hansard, who wrote much of the music for the film.

I really like their version of one of my favorite Van Morrison songs:


One Irish Rover - The Frames


Here's the original version:
