Hozier BioSnap a weekly updated Biography. Hozier kicked off 2026 with a reflective bang as Hotpress republished his standout 2025 interview on January 1, part of their 12 Interviews of Christmas series, where the Irish troubadour dished on everything from his Electric Picnic headline triumph to craving intimate venues like Dublins Academy and LAs Troubadour, calling recent underplays pure party vibes. He got candid about nearly tapping Sinead OConnor for Unreal Unearth, his vocal regimen with coach Rob Stevenson—chugging four liters of water pre-show like its a race—and pleading for ceasefires nightly to a million US fans in 2024, slamming Western leaders over Gaza as a live-streamed genocide.
