Third Solo Album On Vinyl LP!
Pressed at Quality Record Pressings!
Between Two Shores is the third solo release from acclaimed singer-songwriter Glen Hansard, on which he manages to capture that feeling of the big soul-ful sound of his large touring band while still retaining the intimate introspective nature of his acoustic shows. The albums title comes from Hansard's ongoing love of sailing and the sea. When one is equal distance between their starting point and their destination they are in essence "between two shores." A less than ideal time to wonder whether you should turn back or continue on, but a thought that inevitably rears its head.
Glen Hansard has built a career, now over 2 decades strong, on struggle. His impassioned songs mostly veer between the exhausting struggle to make it professionally and the numbing struggle to keep the affections of a romantic partner. Pick up any Frames or Swell Season record, or his first two solo releases, 2012's Rhythm And Repose and 2015's Didn't He Ramble, to find him chipping away at those two pillars.
Glen Hansard has won both an Academy Award and multiple Tony Awards for his work on "Once" - the song "Falling Slowly" won an Oscar for Best Original song in 2007 and the musical won 8 Tony Awards in 2013.
