9. Hozier
In the past couple of years, Hozier’s career has taken off. The 25 year old has had quite a run with his phenomenal track “Take Me to Church” which has been making the rounds for quite a while, mesmerizing everyone who hears it due to the lyrics, the melodic line and the soulful voice singing it all.
Born in a musical family, the Irish singer has always been an artist. He even studied music at the Trinity College in Dublin, but thought better of it and dropped out during his first year to start recording demos instead, which he sent out to Universal Music. During his career he was a member of a choral ensemble. Then, in 2013, he released the EP that included his ticket to stardom – “Take Me to Church.” Thanks to YouTube, the track went viral and the rest, as they say, is history.
Hozier was nominated for a Grammy and even performed the famous track during the 2015 show alongside Annie Lennox.
