Marketa Irglova (half of The Swell Season and Academy Award-winning co-star of Once) is set to release Muna, her second solo record, this fall. Below you can check out “This Right Here,” a new track from the album, and come October 10th you’ll have the chance to see Irglova live at LPR.
 

 
Here’s a little background on Muna, which Irglova recorded in Iceland, from the press release:
 
“‘I had been to Iceland for the first time with the Swell Season,’ Marketa says. ‘I fell in love with it then and was sad to leave, although I knew someday something would bring me back. I am inspired by the open space, the wilderness of the nature, the strong energy coming from the land. There is a harmony, a balance, something that allows for a freer flow of creativity. It is easier to be one with oneself and one with everything and everyone around. This makes for better art, in my opinion.’ Muna (‘remember’ in Icelandic) is a recurring theme throughout the breath of the album.”
 
Irglova’s 10/10 LPR show will be her first live date in NYC since the Broadway adaptation of Once picked up eight Tony Awards in 2012. She and her band will perform material from songs from Muna and her debut solo album Anar, as well as old favorites. You don’t want to miss this! Get your tickets here.
