In 2007, he and Czech songstress Markéta Irglová took home the Academy Award for Best Original Song for "Falling Slowly" from the ONCE soundtrack. Hansard and Irglová continued the success of Once with the 2009 release Strict Joy under the namesake of The Swell Season. In 2012, Hansard released his first solo album, Rhythm and Repose, featuring favorites "Love Don't Keep Me Waiting" and "High Hope." Glen Hansard's newest release, Drive All Night, offers a four-song recording with three original tracks and a cover of Bruce Springsteen's classic song "Drive All Night" featuring Hansard's friends and fellow musicians Eddie Vedder, Jake Clemons and Joe Henry.
