小简介\r The Frames是一支根基主要在都柏林的爱尔兰独立乐队，成军于1990年,目前乐队已经发行了6张专辑及不少的音乐MV.乐队也是1990年代早期都柏林地区摇滚人才辈出时现在仅幸存的乐队之一，他们和Turn乐队一起，被看做是爱尔兰摇滚的中坚力量。\r \r 乐队前贝司手John Carney 现在是位电影导演,并在2006年导演了获奖电影once,电影中乐队的主唱兼吉他手glen hasard出演了主演,电影中绝大部分歌曲也全出自他手.THE FRAMES名字的由来要和glen hansard很年轻的时候说起，当时glen 经常帮助朋友们修理自行车，所一家里放着很多破自行车的构架（frame）,2001年的一次采访中， glen 说：“当时我确实曾经短暂的工作在一家自行车商店，但是乐队名字的主要是由于我家的后花园摆满了破自行车和构架，有的路人发现堆的那么高的破自行车后，就把自己的破自行车也仍进来了，我家因为这个而出名。”这大概就是the frames乐队名称的由来吧。\r \r 乐队这些年来有过许多成员，其中些成员包括前成员同时也是其他一些都柏林摇滚乐队的成员。如Colm Mac Con Iomaire和Dave Odlum是民谣乐队 Kíla的成员。乐队也与其他一些乐队关系紧密。都柏林是glen 开始音乐生涯的地方，2001年当 Kíla乐队的成员Mic Christopher去世时，glen 和他的乐队组织了场名为Skylarkin的演唱会来纪念Mic Christopher。(Skylarkin为Mic Christopher很出名的一首歌曲).\r \r 乐队目前成员：\r Glen Hansard: lead vocals, electric guitar (1990-present)\r Joe Doyle: bass guitar, vocals (1996-present)\r Colm Mac Con Iomaire: violin, keyboard, vocals (1990-present)\r Rob Bochnik: lead guitar (2002-present)\r Johnny Boyle: drums (2003-present)\r \r 前成员\r Noreen O'Donnell: (1990-1996) (singer)\r Dave Odlum: (1990-2002) (guitarist, Odlum later co-produced album Burn the Maps with Bochnik)\r Paul Brennan (Binzer): (1990-1998) (drums)\r Dave Hingerty: (1998-2003) (drums)\r John Carney: (1990-1993) (bass)\r Graham Downey: (1993-1996) (bass)\r \r 乐队专辑：\r Another Love Song (1991) (Out of production, though available for download from iTunes and The Frames website)\r Fitzcarraldo (1995) (As the Frames DC)\r Fitzcarraldo (1996)\r Dance the Devil (1999)\r For the Birds (2001)\r Breadcrumb Trail (2002) (Live Album}\r Set List (2003) (Live Album)\r Burn the Maps (2004)\r The Cost (2006)\r \r The Frames (formed 1990) is an Irish band based primarily in Dublin. As of late 2004, the band consists of Glen Hansard (vocals,\r guitar), Joe Doyle (bass guitar, vocals), Colm MacConIomaire (violin, keyboard and vocals), Rob Bochnik (lead guitar), and Johnny\r Boyle (drums). On both versions of the album "Fitzcarraldo" the band went by the moniker "The Frames DC", to avoid being mistaken\r with a United States band of the same name.\r The Frames have been together since 1990 and are a survivor of Dublin's prolific early 90's rock and roll scene. They have also\r been essential in the development of the current crop of emerging Irish rock bands, such as Turn. The Frames have toured with\r various other Irish artists, including Damien Rice and Bell X1. In December 2004, Hansard appeared on stage in a collaboration\r with singer songwriter Paddy Casey.\r The name The Frames reportedly arose from Hansard's habit, at a young age, of fixing the bicycles of many of his friends. The\r large number of bicycle frames lying around his house led neighbours to dub it the "house with the frames".\r Their new, 6th studio album, The Cost, is available in Ireland since 22 September 2006 and worldwide since 20 February 2007.\r Lead singer Hansard recently collaborated with Czech musician Markéta Irglová, which led to the solo album "The Swell Season".\r Glen and Markéta also star and perform in the John Carney movie Once . The movie received several awards\r including the World Cinema Audience Award - Dramatic at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival as well as an Oscar for best Song for the\r track "Falling Slowly".\r
