I've mentioned this Oscar Winning duo before after seeing their incredible film Once for which they won the Best Song Award, but still don't think I've expressed how glorious I truly think they are. After the meteoric rise and continuous critical praise of the film, Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova decided to keep making music together as The Swell Season. Their new album, entitled "Strict Joy" is positively beautiful and below are a few interviews followed by live performances of some of those songs at NPR's studio from last month. I recommend picking up a copy (Target's selling it for $9.99) or procuring it whatever way you acquire music, because it's heartbreakingly beautiful.
