Just a matter of days since his stunning performance on the Late Show with David Letterman, Hozier has bagged himself a slot on an episode of the Ellen Show next week which will showcase the Wicklow man's music to a television audience of over THREE MILLION.

Hozier has been taking the United States by storm during his brief tour there, having been described by the San Francisco Chronicle as an "artist whose distance embrace of the American blues is all encompassing."

A tweet from Hozier's official account confirmed the news and indicated that the 24-year-old was "elated" and "lost for words". Exciting news for Irish music, we're sure you'll agree! Keep your eyes on entertainment.ie/music over the course of the week as we'll bring you Hozier's Ellen clip as soon as it's available.
