SECRET SET AT GLASTONBURY TONIGHT

(June 23, 2023) Today, due to overwhelming fan-demand since first teasing the song in September of last year, Hozier has shared “Unknown / Nth” from his forthcoming album Unreal Unearth. Featuring dreamy blues guitar thread over a sparse, icy soundscape, the track explores heartbreak at the hands of someone you trusted and the cycle of repeating the same mistakes. Touching on the project’s playful exploration of the structure of Dante’s Inferno, “Unknown / Nth” reflects on the sin of the ninth circle of hell: treachery. Listen HERE and watch the accompanying lyric video HERE.

In speaking about the track, Hozier says: “The title comes from the expression of an unknown but large number, i.e. ‘Nth.’ The song reflects on having your heartbroken by someone you trusted. You think you learned, and it happens again. It also recalls ‘Ninth’ or the 9^th circle of treachery. The song throws away the old premise of angelhood. None of us are angels. We are all going to break someone else’s heart or hurt another person. Musically, there was a minimalist approach. In that cold empty place, something else happened.”

Freshly off the heels of his sold-out run of intimate pop-up shows in the U.S. last month, Hozier is currently on tour in Europe with a secret set at Glastonbury tonight at 7:30pm on the Woodsies stage. He will bring his massive international ‘Unreal Unearth Tour’ to North America this fall beginning September 9 in St. Louis, MO. Promoted by Live Nation, this marks Hozier’s largest headline run in the U.S. and Canada to date with 28 sold-out shows across 25 cities, including Budweiser Stage in Toronto, Madison Square Garden in New York and Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles.

Unreal Unearth, due August 18, marks Hozier’s third studio album. The 16-track LP is available for pre-order HERE and features “Unknown / Nth,” “Francesca,” “All Things End,” and “Eat Your Young,” the RIAA-Diamond certified artist’s third #1 at Triple A radio.
