From The Commitments, The Frames, The Swell Season and beyond, Glen Hansard can sing. The Irish singer caught my ear years ago doing a cover of Bruce Springsteen's Drive All Night with his group The Swell Season. I am enjoying his new release Between Two Shores. Roll On Slowly is great lead off track and I dig the Bruce reference in the song.

Rolling Slow With Glen Hansard
I wish I wasn't on my own, Thunder Road blasting out on E Street Radio... Glen Hansard - Roll On Slow

2013: No. 1 Cover Song of the Year
Tonight there's fallen angels and they're waiting for us down in the street; Tonight there's calling strangers, hear them crying in defeat. Let them go, Let them go, Let them go, Do their dances of the dead... Bruce Springsteen - Drive All Night
Glen Hansard, an Irish singer and a member of the folk duo called The Swell Season released an EP with the title cover of the great Bruce Springsteen ballad Drive All Night. This great cover includes the nephew of Clarence Clemons and current E Street member Jake Clemons, as well as Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam. Springsteen is a tough cover, but Hansard does the song justice. I also love how he plays homage to John Hiatt's Feels Like Rain towards the end of the song; awesome...
