Hozier changed it up on stage in DC. Rory Doyle on drums now takes centre stage behind Hozier. Thandii and Cormac Curran on keyboard and organ have shifted to stage right while Kristen Rogers and Rachel Beauregard on backing vocals are now behind Alex Ryan.
Sometimes the callback on To Be Alone doesn’t quite go to plan.

Say My Name (debut)
We love it when Hozier pulls out a surprise like he did with an encore cover of Destiny’s Child’s Say My Name. Kristen Rogers’ backing vocals are on fire! This song was added to Hozier’s set for the rest of the North American Tour.
