The Frames are an Irish band who have been happily established for the past 17 years and are refreshingly unique.
Their contemporary mix of Irish folk and smooth rock blends for a magical and bohemian concert.
I was lucky enough to see the band live for the second time in the Grand Opera House in Belfast - a laid back venue for a laid back band.
Frontman Glen Hansard belted out each song with pride and passion which left me with the feeling that each song was his last.
Star Star was my favourite hit of the night, closely followed by Falling Slowly in which the band were accompanied by Glen’s girlfriend Marketa Irglova.
Hansard is without a doubt a superior lyricist and an outstanding vocalist and onstage he is a master in his craft.
When The Frames return to Belfast their concert should be made compulsory for discerning music fans. And when they do come back, I will be waiting in a front row seat.
