Hold up…Hozier is back in the game?!

After four long years of waiting, the musical god has finally released new music, and it is AMAZING!

The new EP, titled Nina Cried Power was released last night after much awaited anticipation, and it was definitely worth the wait.

The new album has four songs total: Nina Cried Power, NFWB (Nothing Fucks With My Baby), Moment’s Silence (Common Tongue), and Shrike.

The Wicklow native has continued to embody the classic Irish theme of dark and tainted love. His haunting voice beautifully slips above the songs’ catchy beats, pulling us back in once again with his new music.

Nina Cried Power features American gospel legend Mavis Staples (Oh Happy Day singer), adding a soulful twist on Hozier’s original sound.

NFWB, on the other hand, sounds like something off the Vampire Diaries' soundtrack as torment and darkness ooze from an obsessive partner.

If you’re desperate for a more upbeat tune, Moment’s Silence has a beat you can’t help tapping your foot to. The guitar twang and rhythmic clapping will have you bobbing your head along for the whole song.

Things slow down as Shrike takes us on a journey about hipster lovers. If you need a good cry, this song is the perfect fix, full of lost hope and missed opportunity. This song is classic Hozier.

Lucky fans get to see Andrew Hozier Byrne rehearse his new album in The Academy tonight for his final Dublin performance, and we’ll be hoping that the passionate singer will bless us with a few new hits.

But for those of us mere mortals, who could not get tickets before the charity concert sold-out, thank god we have Spotify.

So, check out his new EP today. You won’t be disappointed.

Hozier may be known for his sombre tone and complex lyrics, but last night the singer-songwriter proved he is full of the spirit of Christmas when he performed a surprise gig for a very special cause.

The Wicklow native dropped into Laura Lynn's Children's Hospice in Dublin to perform for a crowd of parents and children who had gathered for a special Christmas lights ceremony.

He took to the stage alongside Irish indie rockers Ham Sandwich for a touching rendition of Winter Wonderland.

Decked out in his Christmas best, Hozier wore a brightly lit festive jumper, featuring The Animal from The Muppets Show made using felt and fairy lights.

According to Twitter user @RianRyan, the jumper was specially made for him by some of the kids ar Laura Lynn House.

Twitter is flooded with clips from event-goers who captured the magical moment for everyone to enjoy.

Check it out for yourself:

Discussions on rape, sexual harassment and consent have been more prominent than ever in recent weeks, as case after high profile case is exposed in Hollywood and the music industry. 

Yesterday, Hozier gave his two cents on the manner. 

Taking to Twitter, the singer penned a poignant tweet t in favour of consent. 

 

A post shared by Andrew Hozier Byrne (@hozier) on

The Take Me To Church musician framed his tweet in a manner intended to address the commonplace (and incorrect) argument that consent is a grey area, and that articulating consent between adults can ruin the mood.

'Consent is sexy. Lads, if you're not convinced that consent, audible consent -something uttered, something whispered, something called for loudly- is sexy, then chaps I'm afraid you may not be doing this right,' he tweeted. 

'Be well.'

He then followed this with: 'Before I get butchered for using this language, of course it is first and foremost *mandatory*.'

'I'm more addressing a commonly found aversion to "ruining the mood" by discussing sex before an act of sex, which is frankly, nonsense.'

Many people applauded the singer for making a positive contribution to the discussion surrounding sexual violence, and for using his platform to publicise an important issue. 

However, others criticised the singer for framing his comment in such a way. 

'I understand the sentiment but framing consent as sexy isn’t necessarily sending the right message,' tweeted one. 

'Consent isn’t sexy, it is wholly and absolutely necessary.'

In response, Hozier, aka Andrew Byrne, tweeted once more.

'That was a poorly worded tweet. I had seen something that annoyed me re people talking about, voicing, asking etc and provided absolutely no context at all in what I thought was an irreverent jibe aimed at lads. Language matters and framing it that way was silly,' he said.

Fans rushed to his defence, saying 'you're an ally dude. We all see that.'

'If what you said offended somebody then you must be doing something right lol – people on this site at this time are so vitriolic anyway,' said another.

A list of Ireland's most well-off entertainers has been revealed – and there's no prizes for guessing which Mullingar man nabbed the top spot.

Niall Horan has been named as Ireland's richest entertainer, aged just 23, and while you might think a young man like himself might be a bit reckless with his €44 million fortune, financial experts think quite the opposite.

According to The Mirror, it seems the Slow Hands singer learned how to manage money from a young age and is actually well-informed when it come to business and finance.

Other famous faces appearing on the list include Wicklow native, Hozier, who is worth an estimated €4.5 million, while Jedward have a net worth of €1.5 million.

The names were revealed ahead of Ireland’s Rich List, which is due to air on RTÉ 2 this Thursday.

Presenter Joe O’Shea said: “There were a few surprises on the list for me but Niall wasn’t one of them, because One Direction was very much a global vessel.”

“I think he realises how lucky he is. He’s so young and he has all this money. But he has a good head on his shoulders and he’s learned a lot from his years in the music industry.”

So, Hozier has a bit of a knack for popping up when he least except him.

Last year the Take me to Church singer joined the Trinity Orchestra on stage at Electric Picnic for an epic David Bowie tribute and he pulled a similar stunt during the closing set of Dublin's longitude festival last night.

After a weekend packed with amazing performances from the The Weeknd, Picture This and Stormzy, Mumford and Sons found the perfect way to close the show.

The band invited a a number of Irish artists on stage and from what we can see on Twitter, it was absolutely magical!

Hozier, Jack Garret, Jorja Smith, Kevin Garrett and Lucy Rose were among those to join the British indie rockers for a rendition of the Beatles classic, With a Little Help From my Friends.

Take a look.

Has there ever been a more perfect ending to a festival?

We think not.

The internet was going crazy yesterday after rumours broke that Hozier and Saoirse Ronan have struck up a romantic relationship. 

Reports alleged that the pair have been enjoying a 'secret string of dates' around Dublin, but according to a pal of the singer, this simply isn't true. 

'Saoirse and Hozier are good friends, but they are definitely not a couple,' a source reportedly told Goss.

'I think people really wanted it to be true, but they aren't dating,'

The pair of Irish talents were seen hanging out together after Saoirse shot scenes for Ed Sheeran's Galway Girl video, but if the source is to be believed, then it was just as friends. 

They have previously worked together on Hozier's music video Cherry Wine. 

Both Saoirse and Hozier are quite private about their romantic lives, with neither the actress nor the Take Me To Church singer confirming or denying the relationship.
