An intimate acoustic session shot by Naked Noise...
Since his emergence earlier this year, *Hozier* has sparked all manner of headlines, all manner of praise.
At heart, though, the appeal lies in his ability to translate complex emotional truths into something direct, something melodic and something strangely affecting.
