As he graces the cover of our current issue, we dig out a golden interview with the Wicklow star...
He's been breaking records and hitting huge milestones at a rate of knots over the past year or so, and another biggie is on the horizon.
On Friday July 17, Hozier will deliver his first ever headline performance at an Irish festival.
It's a proper 'get' for Longitude, which also brings the likes of alt-J, The Chemical Brothers, Danny Brown, Wolf Alice and Everything Everything to Marlay Park this year.
In the current issue of Hot Press, Mr. Hozier-Byrne graces the cover once more, as we profile the star and look forward to the show.
"I'm looking forward to that," he told Dermot and Dave on Today FM recently. "It's my first time headline a festival in Ireland so I'm excited for it."
