Flashback to 2014

Hozier performed at The Great Escape Festival in Brighton, England on May 8, 2014.

The Great Escape Festival was the first performance with Alana Henderson and most of Hozier’s crew, who would stay on until the end of the tour almost two years later.

***IT'S A TGE THROWBACK*** Today we are looking back to our TGE alumni, focusing on the Irish global phenomenon, Hozier. Hozier played The Great Escape back in 2014 in the Spiegeltent. He has gone on to become one of the biggest musicians in the world and recently finished his world tour. We caught up with Hozier this week for an exclusive TGE interview, link in bio. Tonight at 8.00pm, we will be having a live Twitter Q&A session with Hozier from our TGE Twitter account. Send in your questions via Twitter, followed by #TGEHozierQandA.

While at The Great Escape Festival, Hozier did a live session for Gigwise where he recorded this fantastic version of Cherry Wine.

Bonus

We think Cookie Monster is an excellent match for a musician with a sweet-tooth. After all, Cookie Monster is known for his musical prowess. Sing along!
