As we enter the final few days of 2022, we’re thrilled to present the new Hot Press Annual – featuring cover star Glen Hansard. After another action-packed year, our 2022 Annual breaks down all the highlights and unforgettable moments, as well as our top albums, songs, films and games of the year.
In the two-and-a-half years since he released his latest solo album, This Wild Willing, Glen Hansard has weathered more than his fair share of hard times – including the death of his mother, in the middle of a livelihood-snatching pandemic. But he has never lost his drive, and, with an impressive series of projects lined up for 2022, we might just be entering a brand new chapter in what’s already been an extraordinary career. Over a cup of tea in a Dublin pub, he talks with remarkable honesty about life, art, loss, family, progress, projects, class, crises, home, hope – and learning to let go...
You can also look forward to interviews with Christy Moore, Villagers, Tori Amos, Joanne McNally, Wolf Alice, The Matrix Resurrections’ Jessica Henwick, Richard Chambers, Luke Cassidy, Pat Egan and many, many more.
