据格伦·汉塞德的经纪公司透露，曾获奥斯卡奖的爱尔兰创作歌手格伦·汉塞德于周三凌晨在都柏林的一起摩托车撞车事故中去世，享年56岁。
“我们怀着破碎的心，宣布格伦·汉塞德于今日凌晨离世，”ATC经纪公司在发给哥伦比亚广播公司新闻的一份声明中说道。
爱尔兰警方表示，周三凌晨4:30前，在爱尔兰首都郊区卢坎发生了一起单辆摩托车撞车事故，一名50多岁的男子身亡。警方未透露该男子身份，急救人员在现场对其进行了救治，但不久后宣布其死亡。哥伦比亚广播公司新闻的合作机构英国广播公司新闻报道称，警方正在呼吁事故目击者挺身而出。
据英国广播公司报道，汉塞德1970年出生于都柏林，曾在这座城市街头卖艺。他于1991年在电影《追梦者》中完成演艺首秀，饰演奥茨潘·福斯特——都柏林一支灵魂乐队里一名年轻的工人阶级成员。
2007年，汉塞德再次将音乐与表演结合，出演独立音乐电影《曾经》，并与玛尔凯塔·伊尔格洛娃共同创作了影片配乐。两人同时也担任了影片主演。汉塞德与伊尔格洛娃凭借歌曲《缓缓坠落》斩获2008年奥斯卡最佳原创歌曲奖。该音乐剧的舞台改编版于2012年至2015年在百老汇上演，斩获八项托尼奖，并在全球各地巡演。

在私下生活中，汉塞德长期担任摇滚乐队“The Frames”的主唱，并与伊尔格洛娃以摇滚二人组“The Swell Season”的名义进行演出。汉塞德还发行了五张个人专辑，其中包括2016年获得格莱美最佳民谣专辑提名的《他难道不是一往无前》。
汉塞德曾多次登上哥伦比亚广播公司《周六早间秀》的“周六现场”栏目。2015年，他在节目中宣传了专辑《他难道不是一往无前》，并分别于2018年和2024年演唱了其他个人专辑中的曲目。2025年8月，他与伊尔格洛娃共同演绎了《前行》中的歌曲，这是他们时隔16年以“The Swell Season”组合名义推出的首张专辑。
2023年在 Pogues 乐队主唱尚恩·麦高恩的葬礼上，汉塞德与爱尔兰歌手丽莎·奥尼尔共同演唱了 Pogues 乐队的歌曲《纽约童话》，葬礼教堂的过道上随即响起了跳舞的人群。
多年来，汉塞德都会在都柏林盖蒂剧院外举办平安夜慈善街头演出，公众会聚集于此观看爱尔兰知名音乐人表演，为都柏林西蒙社区筹款。据英国广播公司报道，该组织于周三表示，听闻汉塞德的死讯后“深受打击”。

“许多人都知道他是天才词曲作者和故事讲述者，但对我们而言，他远不止于此：他慷慨无私，是我们事业真正的拥护者，也是对抗无家可归斗争中的巨人，”都柏林西蒙社区在一份声明中说道。
汉塞德留下了妻子和一名3岁的儿子。在2023年接受英国广播公司采访时，汉塞德表示，成为父亲“以最美好的方式彻底颠覆了我所熟知的一切”。
爱尔兰总理米歇尔·马丁表示，他“得知格伦·汉塞德去世的消息深感悲痛”。
“他是一位才华横溢的音乐家和演员，多年来为爱尔兰的文化景观做出了重要贡献，”马丁在X平台上发文称，并向他的家人、朋友和粉丝“致以诚挚的慰问”。
Glen Hansard, Oscar-winning singer-songwriter, killed in Dublin motorcycle crash

Academy Award-winning Irish singer-songwriter Glen Hansard died in a motorcycle crash in Dublin early Wednesday, his management said. He was 56.
“With broken hearts, we announce the passing of Glen Hansard in the early hours of this morning,” ATC Management said in a statement to CBS News.
Irish police said a man in his 50s died in a single vehicle motorcycle crash in Lucan on the outskirts of the Irish capital before 4:30 a.m. on Wednesday. The man, who they did not name, was treated at the scene but was pronounced dead a short time later. CBS News partner BBC News reported that police are asking witnesses from the crash to come forward.
Hansard was born in Dublin in 1970, according to the BBC, and busked in the city. He made his acting debut in the 1991 film “The Commitments,” playing Outspan Foster, a young working-class member of a Dublin soul band.
Hansard again combined music and acting in the 2007 indie musical film “Once,” co-writing the movie’s songs with Markéta Irglová. The pair also starred in the film. Hansard and Irglová won the 2008 Oscar for best original song for the number “Falling Slowly.” A stage adaptation of the musical ran on Broadway from 2012 to 2015, winning eight Tony Awards, and has played around the world.

Off-screen, Hansard was long-serving frontman for rock band The Frames and performed with Irglová as the rock duo The Swell Season. Hansard has also released five solo albums, including “Didn’t He Ramble,” which was nominated for a Grammy for best folk album in 2016.
Hansard has made frequent appearances on CBS Saturday Mornings’ “Saturday Sessions” segment. In 2015, he showcased “Didn’t He Ramble,” and in 2018 and 2024 he played songs from other solo albums. In August 2025, he and Irglová performed songs from “Forward,” their first album as The Swell Season in 16 years.
At the funeral of The Pogues frontman Shane MacGowan in 2023, Hansard performed The Pogues’ song “Fairytale Of New York” with Irish singer Lisa O’Neill, which prompted dancing in the aisles of the church.

For years, Hansard led the Christmas Eve charity busk outside Dublin’s Gaiety Theatre, where members of the public gathered to see famous Irish musicians perform in aid of the Dublin Simon Community. The organization said Wednesday it was “devastated” to hear of Hansard’s death, according to the BBC.

“While known to many as a genius songwriter and storyteller, for us, he was threefold that, in his generosity, a true advocate for our work and a giant in the fight against homelessness,” the Dublin Simon Community said in a statement.
Hansard is survived by his wife and a 3-year-old son. In a 2023 interview with the BBC, Hansard said becoming a father had “completely, in the greatest way possible, upturned everything that I know.”
Irish Prime Minister Micheál Martin said he was “deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Glen Hansard.”
“A talented musician and actor who made a significant contribution to Ireland’s cultural landscape over many years,” Martin posted on X, sending his “sincere sympathies to his family, friends and fans.”
