The Irish singer-songwriter revealed that he was the performer behind the unnamed TBA slot scheduled to begin at 7.30 p.m. that evening on the Woodsies Stage, formerly known as the John Peel Stage, on Friday morning.

To Be Alone, Someone New, and Angel of Small Death and The Codeine Scene were among the songs he chose.


He sang and played guitar in the circus-themed tent to a crowd of adoring fans who sang along the entire time, backed by an orchestral band and backup singers.

As he closed off his show Hozier said: “It’s been a joy. I hope you have a beautiful weekend, thank you so much.”
