Glen Hansard, the frontman of Irish rock band The Frames and an Academy Award-winning songwriter, has died following a motorcycle accident in Dublin. 1 Hansard was 56 years old at the time of his death, which occurred early Wednesday morning before 4:30 a.m. local time on Dublin's west side in a single-vehicle collision. 1 Irish police confirmed that a man in his fifties died in the incident. 1
Hansard achieved international recognition in 2008 when he won the Oscar for Best Original Song for "Falling Slowly" from the film Once. 1 He founded The Frames in 1990 and became a central figure in Ireland's music landscape. 1 Beyond his recording career, Hansard initiated a street performance tradition on Christmas Eve beginning in 2010, which raised more than two million euros for Dublin's Simon Community charity. 1 He is survived by his wife Maire Saaritsa and their three-year-old son Christy. 1
The music community has mourned his passing. Bruce Springsteen expressed that he and his band were "heartbroken" over the death of "this great musician, our friend and a person of such generosity and grace." 1 Bono paid tribute on X, describing Hansard as "the voice of the streets. An angelic choir in one man." 1
