GLEN HANSARD

Friday, May 22, 2026 - Manchester Albert Hall, Manchester

Glen Hansard opens his May 2026 run at Manchester Albert Hall on 22 May, bringing a set grounded in folk rock and singer-songwriter storytelling. Drawing from albums such as "All That Was East Is West of Me Now", "This Wild Willing" and "Live at Sydney Opera House", alongside singles like "Great Weight", "Take Heart" and "Cold Comfort", he revisits recent studio work and live favourites in a room built for detailed, dynamic performances. As the first of two UK dates before heading to London Roundhouse, this show frames his current phase with an emphasis on nuanced rock arrangements and intimate delivery.
