All That Was East Is West of Me Now

Glen Hansard

A gritty, electrified evolution of Irish folk. Weather-beaten vocals meet fuzzed-out guitars in a record that feels like a storm breaking over a quiet harbor.

October 20, 2023 · Anti-

Find on Amazon

A defiant and gritty meditation on mortality and resilience, delivered with raw, barroom intensity.

Moments Worth Listening For
The explosive transition in 'Down on Our Knees' where the drums finally lock into a heavy, driving groove.
The way Hansard's voice cracks under the emotional weight of the final chorus in 'Ghost'.
The haunting, cyclical piano motif that anchors the meditative 'Between Us There Is Music'.
