Back in October 2009, we did a photo shoot in Seattle with Glen Hansard of the Frames/Swell Season (and the movie Once) for a story in our forthcoming Spring edition. Halfway through the shoot, Hansard joined a local busker and performed a few tunes in front of Pike Place Market. A Swell Season tune, a Van Morrison tune and a Waterboys tune… all played on that already iconic Takamine that Hansard refuses to retire.
