World-renowned singer-songwriter Hozier has released a treat for fans in the shape of the Unheard EP, featuring focus track 'Too Sweet'.
The EP contains four unreleased songs, originally recorded during the sessions for latest chart-topping album Unreal Unearth. These include ‘Too Sweet’, ‘Empire Now’, ‘Fare Well’, and ‘Wildflower and Barley’ featuring Canadian Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter and activist, Allison Russell.
Hozier says; “It’s my pleasure to announce the release of more work from the album sessions which could not make the original release. These are songs that might’ve made it to the circles of gluttony, limbo, violence and the outward ‘ascent’ respectively but could not for different reasons. I’m very glad I’ll get to share them with you.”

In August last year Hozier scored his first ever UK #1 with that very third studio album Unreal Unearth. The Irish superstar has cemented himself as one of the greatest songwriters in his field with a record that spawned world class tracks in ‘Eat Your Young’, ‘All Things End’, ‘Francesca’ and ‘De Selby (Part 2)’. He outsold the entire UK Top 5 combined in release week and also scored the top spot in Ireland, as well as securing his first ever #1 album in the Netherlands and top 5 spots in the USA and Germany.
This summer will see the 34-year-old perform outdoor shows, including a sold out date at London’s 45,000 capacity Finsbury Park on July 7 – which will be his biggest UK headline show to date. This follows what was an incredible 2023 on the live circuit which included a triumphant surprise set at Glastonbury, an acclaimed sold out show at Ally Pally Park, and over a million tickets sold worldwide for his sold-out headline tour, which saw him conquer arenas including London’s OVO Arena Wembley.
