Glen Hansard has announced a solo acoustic UK tour for April 2024 set to include two shows at Union Chapel in London. Tickets are on sale from 10am on Friday December 8th 2023.
Hansard recently released his new album, a collection of songs about life getting closer to completion than commencement, aptly titled All That Was East Is West Of Me Now. A record that is noisy and meditative as well as sprawling and hypnotic, it is Hansard’s most rollicking record since Burn the Maps-era The Frames, and won four-star reviews from Mojo and Record Collector.
