Hozier, came to prominence when he travelled to Dingle to perform at Other Voices in December 2013. The filming of his performance at Other Voices was his first time to appear on television in his own right and in the months following his TV debut, the young gifted musician and songwriter became a worldwide success with an album now parked at the top of the US charts.
In this special Other Voices episode, Hozier gives an in-depth interview revealing his musical influences and the significance of playing of the Other Voices festival.
Hozier and his career may be young, but his musical roots and influences span many generations, and genres, creating a unique sound that is a triumphant union of blues, folk, gospel, and soul. See and hear for yourself as plays an intimate, private concert at the legendary St. James Church in the town of Dingle. With stripped-down versions of “Work Song,” “From Eden,” and his massive hit, “Take Me To Church,” Hozier delivers a performance that is both somber and sunny, low-key and high-powered, and uniquely his own.
