Falling Slowly Into The National Spotlight...

Well...now the little indie film that has been working it's way to the top is known by more than 1 Billion viewers. Last night, Glen Hansard & Marketa Irgova won the Oscar for Best Song (Falling Slowly in Once) and the acceptance speech was so genuine and impressive. They initially cut Marketa off, but allowed her to come back out to say a few words. Nice. And even better is that they will embark on a tour that will bring them through the Detroit area (Royal Oak Music Theatre) on May 10th. The tickets go on sale this Friday, February 29th. For those that may not know, this musical collaboration is called The Swell Season.
