The Frames – Burn The Maps

I went through my iTunes library today to listen to some of the older tunes I used to listen to, and came across the Irish band, The Frames.

I think it’s pretty cool how the lead singer, Glen Hansard, got discovered. He wanted to make a demo, and so his mum (after doing some underground investigating, I found out like any good journalist would, that they actually say “mum” instead of “mom” in Ireland) went to the bank and said that she needed a loan to fix up the house. He made 50 copies of a four track EP, and much to his surprise, Denny Cordell (best known for discovering Tom Petty, and managing Joe Crocker) got his hands on an album, and Glen was immediately signed by Island.

The Frames songs such as Suffer In Silence, remind me a lot of Bright Eyes.
Burn The Maps:

The Frames – Sideways Down

The Frames – Suffer In Silence

The Frames – Happy

Hurricane Healing, Vol. 2:

The Frames – Lay Me Down

    get overloaded by the Australian Department of Education. Different companies have produced different types of pickups that are on pitch.
