Maddie’s New Music Mondays: Hozier

January 18, 2016 by Emily Hill 6 Comments

This series is written by my daughter Madison. She has the absolute coolest taste in music. Post may include affiliate links to support my Diet Coke habit.

Alright. This week’s artist is Hozier. Now before you “x” this page, hear me out. Andrew Hozier-Bryne (holy freak listen to that sweet name. Hozier-Bryne.) is an Irish singer and songwriter from Bray, County Wicklow. Now if you’re like me, you have no idea where that is. Well, lucky for you I did my research. It’s a county (duh) in Ireland; the name means “Vikings’ Meadow” and has a population of 136,640 according to the 2011 census.

Anyway, back to Hozier. He became really well known for his single “Take Me to Church.” His genres are indie rock, soul, and blues. He’s also a straight 10/10. Just look at him:

It’s a good thing it’s Monday because he’s my man-crush Monday. MM. Ahem.

The two songs I’ve fallen in love with from him are “Someone New” and “Like Real People Do.”

Another two I love from him are “From Eden” and “Cherry Wine.”

You know what? You’re going to listen to “From Eden” right now.

    Hi, glad you’ve discovered the awesomeness that is Hozier! I fell in love immediately with his voice and then quickly after that I fell in love with everything else about him. I’ve seen him 3 times in concert and met him 3 times. He is the nicest guy! And, um, I’ll give him a 10 in the looks department ;)

    I’m part of the fandom, and I tweet from @hozierschurch

    We have a new site, but it’s early days: hozierschurch.com and are building a Pinterest board at pinterest.com/hozierschurch

    Have a Hozy day!

    Our family loooooves Hozier!!! He has such a cool vibe. He’s gigantic which just makes him even cooler. We each have our favorite… Kenz loves Jackie & Wilson!!! ? Mackay & Hayden love the Work Song. I love that video… Cool dancing!!! ? I loved Take Me to Church but then played it too much, so Someone New is my new fav. Aaron is still stuck listening to Phil Collins. We’re hoping he comes to the party soon. ? Love your music style Maddie! ???

      I agree, Take Me to Church was played WAY too often. But I adore his other music. And he’s easy on the eyes. ;)
