Liveline · Death of Glen Hansard · 29 Jul 2026 podcast

Good to talk to you.

My goodness me, still processing this news.

You know, Liam called me early this morning and told me and I couldn't believe it.

Like all the rest of us, really kind of shocked and saddened and then

Nothing with what Glenn has given us all, you know, what he's given this country, what he's given the world with his humanitarianism, just with his soul.

And I was immediately brought back to the last time I saw him.

And the last time I saw Glenn was up on the hill of Iisneach at Monchon's Scattering of his Ashes.

And he had Christie in his arms and there was rain pouring and myself and Liam were singing some songs.

Glenn was sitting in the rain, listening, lapping it up, completely unperturbed by the weather.

And then we were chatting afterwards, and little Christy had this gorgeous little oak leaf in his hand, which he gave to me.

And it is sitting in a guitar case at home at the moment.

I just opened up the guitar case this morning, and the oak leaf was in the guitar case, the guitar that I was using on that day.

And that is something that I just think that

I will just treasure that.

And, of course, my heart goes out to Christy and to Mairi and to the whole family.

But, you know, it's a shocker.

You know, it's...

There was just, we just had that connection at that time.

And I could see, I hadn't seen Glenn in a while.
