Built in 1906 as a shelter for young wayward or orphaned girls, The Chapel at the Good Shepherd Center in Seattle provided a new haven for two hundred Artists Den guests on a crisp autumn night. The Swell Season ? led by Glen Hansard and backed by Marketa Irglova on piano and two of Hansard's band mates from The Frames on bass and violin ? gave a special performance of their melodic, original songs months before winning the Academy Award for Best Original Song with "Falling Slowly".
