Glen and Marketa sign new publishing deal

The deal covers the Once and The Swell Season albums plus songs Glen has penned for The Frames.
Says Warner/Chappell’s Glen Brunman: “Glen and Mar's songs have touched so many who’ve seen the film Once. Now that they’ve joined the Warner/Chappell family, we are excited to help their songwriting partnership flourish. Glen's work with The Frames will continue to rock and we'll make sure that it reaches an even wider audience.”
Meanwhile, in an exlusive interview with Hot Press – out on Thursday March 13 – Mr. Hansard reveals that The Frames have found themselves another celebrity admirer.
“I was looking for a guitar shop – I knew I’d need new strings cos we were playing the Oscars – and I went into McCabe's in Santa Monica,” he informs us. “And T Bone Burnett happened to be in the shop the next day, and they mentioned that we were playing, and T Bone came to see us play this tiny little gig, 120 people or so, and he said, ‘My two favourite bands in Ireland are Kila and The Frames.’ And I was shocked that he knew Kila, but I was like, ‘You know who the Frames are?’ And he says, ‘You’d be surprised how many people know who the Frames are. There’s a lot of affection out there for your band, and has been for a long time, but people haven’t had any reason to step forward and say, ‘Oh by the way, there’s a band in Ireland that no-one’s ever heard of called The Frames and they’re great.’ No one’s ever had any reason to fly your flag, and now you’ll find people coming out of the woodwork who’ll know who you are.’”
