Story behind the scenes…

Prague, perfect scenery to live your own fairy tale. Maybe fairy tales do come true after all… I am personally living mine, and this is theirs…

He, Glen Hansard born in Dublin in 1970, is the founding member of Irish rock group The Frames. He quit school at the age of 13 and gradually established himself as one of Irish music's most popular and greatest talents. In April 2006, he released his first solo album, The Swell Season, in collaboration with Czech singer Marketa Irglova. The Frames are currently touring around USA

She, Marketa Irglova born in Moravia in 1988 (Czech Republic) is a multi-instrumentalist and songwriter. At the age of 19, she has proved to be quite a talent, having already recorded an album of music with Glen while also co-starring alongside him in ONCE. She began playing music at the age of seven, when her parents got her a piano. She met Glen when he was visiting Prague, and they began playing together and eventually collaborated musically, which resulted in the release of The Swell Season.

And they lived happily after all...
