NEW EDDIE VEDDER AND GLEN HANSARD COLLABORATION SET FOR RELEASE LATER THIS YEAR

By: 17 January 2013 24 Comments

Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder and Glen Hansard recorded a few new songs together last year that they will polish and release later this year. Hansard has been opening for Vedder since 2011 and the two have become good friends. Hansard told Time Out Sydney that he first started talking to Vedder after a fan committed suicide at one of his shows. Vedder had also dealt with deaths at a Pearl Jam show in 2000 so he called Hansard to help him deal with it, “But Eddie was tryin’ to help me through something that I didn’t understand how to deal with. I was so struck by the amount of heart he showed, he was so willing to hear me out.”

    Could be good….

  • El dúo Hansard - Vedder se consolidará este mismo año | Binaural.es said:

    [...] BSO de “Into The Wild” conseguirá llevar la relación a otro nivel en 2013 gracias al lanzamiento de una serie de temas que han grabado de forma conjunta en los últimos meses. Aún se desconoce si saldrán en formato EP, LP o single pero se supone que próximamente sabremos [...]

    Marked on my calendar as a non-purchase…
    I’m hoping this is the start of a PJ breakup. How great is Matt in Soundgarden with a decent lead singer who does’t sound like Milton Berle?

    EV is a clown!!

    Hansard is a fucking awesome singer and songwriter. It’s a shame more people don’t know of him and The Frames.

  • mandingo said:

    I saw Vedder and Hansard in birmingham last year and they were incredible together ! I cant wait to hear what they have done as it is bound to be gold !!

  • Alex said:

    Hey Jack Irons, I understand and respect your opinion, I prefer Matt Cameron playing for Soundgarden as well…but what the hell, what do you get from writing that shit here?? Come on dude, show some respect for the artists and for the fans…

    I don’t get it, really, you hope PJ breaks up? what do you care?? if you don’t like them, just don’t listen to them…

    Hope Ed get’s his touchy feely emotions out with Glen and is able to channel some more rock into the new PJ album. No more just breaths for PJ, I’d rather he save that for his solo work.

  • Truth said:

    Ignore Jack Irons he’s a tool with no life. Also known throughout this site as a troll.
    Hey Jack, it’s getting old man! And like you say, I’m just calling a spade a spade man, and your a troll!

    Alex:

    If Ed Hollywood isn’t gonna show any respect for his fans, I have no respect for him. How can someone in good conscience charge $100 bucks a head to have people listen to you sing and then smoke like a chimney & forgot half your lyrics?? STOP THE MADNESS!! Enough with the fanboys!!

  • juca said:

    @jack irons,

    Suck my dick, come here .I.

  • ejsme said:

    Why do they look like they’re dressed up as doctors in that picture? What’s with the lab coats?

  • Jack Irons said:

    ejsme:

    They’re jagoffs! That’s why…
    That’s Ed’s schtick for the final song EVERY night, “Hard Sun”. I still don’t understand the lab coat thing, maybe so Ed Hollywood doesn’t spill Gatorade on his outfit.

  • mandingo said:

    Jack you gotta chill out mate ! I understand how you feel as i feel the same way about that king of cocks scott weiland but there is bound to be a anti- vedder site you could go to vent your frustrations ! I agree with mitch as i love eddies solo stuff but would fucking love the next PJ album to be more intense but thats a hard thing to do as when life gets a liitle easier and we all get a little older our drives and passions change and that leads to a softer approach to the music ! They will always write amazing songs but i feel that we are all hoping for a new ten or vs but thats never gonna happen , they are not the same people they were when those albums were written and its not fair for us to expect that of them , We will always get exceptional music from them no matter what and for that i will always be gratefull to them for that !

  • Jack Irons said:

    I’m calm… No one wants another “Ten”, just for him to stop smoking & remember his lyrics. You know… What he gets paid millions of dollars to do!
    Everything they have done the last half dozen years is a joke! From the Oracle corporate show to the Paid in America gig to the FAKE Amstderdam trip to a “fan” who is a good friend of the band and the list goes on and on. They’re a joke in every way, not just the horrible singing and blown songs nightly. Hollywood Ed thinks is a big joke and just laughs it off. He doesn’t relize people pay their hard earned money to travel and see him half ass it??

    I don’t see anywhere on the site that says comments have to be positive or negative only.

    Ed Hollywood is a clown!!

  • Christine said:

    @Jack, Fans of Ed and his work are happy, why throw negative opinions “on their wave’ . Sometimes freedom of speech means knowing when to say (post) nothing….. unless it’s about a BillCo comment then it’s a cage fight free-for-all. (jk)

  • Christine said:

    PS: I’m sure the Oracle gig money went to charity, ditto for Foo at Apple.

  • Inmytree said:

    Jack Irons is crazy but PJ has lost their luster a bit lately …

  • Spents said:

    Haha. You all realize that the number one thing trolls want is attention, right? Responding to Jack Irons just makes him post more. Ignore his post (because you know exactly what it will say) and he’ll move on.

  • Cynthia said:

    When I see the white lab coats I think how we are just a bunch of test rats and need to watch out for doctors, Judges, Lawyers, the Government, Police,CIA,… We are just nothing but tinker toys for them to monitor and interfere with. There is a secret Government running the show and they are living amoungst us mixed in. (look up CIA Mind Control, Haarp Mind control, Goverment Mind Control) The technology they have to alter us and interfere with us is like unto the power of God… the things they do like hear your thoughts and put thoughts in your head people thought only God could do, they can also hurt you in many way… cause you to fall, your ears to grow, hair grow or fall out, anything…

  • Cynthia said:

    cont. they have Nano sized technology, microscopic chips they put in things like every car, household items, vaccines…they can put you out and take you over like a puppet they CAN make YOU do anything they desire… even commit crimes that you’ll pay for even though they took you over, MIND CONTROL IS ALL OVER COMPLETE CONTROL…PRAY TO GOD FOR SAFETY… Living amoungst us is robots, aliens, driods, clones… they made 9 clones of me that comit whoredoms and crimes… I can’t win… yet I stay as brave and real as I can, this is a false reality everyone is living in… Pray Hard for the Safety Of the Almighty… if you remember that show from the 70′s, “Your On Candid Camera”… well it’s true, we all are on camera like in the move “Men In Black” and much more. Hollywood is’nt that fake to the Truth of all, so pay attention and do Good Things! Our thoughts Create Our Reality…watch something beautiful and amazing and look into it further, there is much more to see, hear, know… Love On… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tAvzsjcBtx8

  • Cynthia said:

    I need my Twin Flame who is Eddie…never a day or night goes by that I don’t seek him… I talk to him in my own way, I hope one day he makes it to me… I hear from God together we Shine and send a Surge of Light and Love out through the Universe when we merge…

  • Cynthia said:

    It freaked me out too when the Truth became known to me… what can you do about it? Scary stuff, terrible… I’ll tell you… you just live in this crazy world and do your very best, stay true to you… pray for help from God, Jesus and the Angels, they are also VERY REAL! Know that it is written the future is Bright! Love On…
