""It felt right to title the record Forward because it's a reunion of sorts, but we're not going backwards. Both of us have grown and changed; we're in different places and getting to know each other again as the new people we've become.""
""There [came] a pressure that neither of us particularly wanted, and ultimately we kind of drifted. We remained good friends... but... I realized I just missed her.""
""The idea was to do a little recording and not put any pressure on it, just see what happens, and suddenly we found ourselves making a record.""
""Stuck in Reverse is about the difficulty of letting go: Moving on is clearly the right and natural thing to do. This song speaks to that part of us that can't quite get.""
Glen Hansard and Markéta Irglová have announced their first album together as The Swell Season in 16 years, titled 'Forward,' which will be released on June 13th. Following a successful solo career, the duo has reconnected to create an album featuring eight new tracks, including the single 'Stuck in Reverse.' Reflecting on their growth since the Academy Award win for 'Falling Slowly' from the film 'Once,' both artists express excitement about reuniting in a new phase of their creative lives.
