'We Were Born Sick,' You Heard Them Say It


Well it has been a very long and unnecessary hiatus. That's the bad news. The good news is I've encountered some wonderful artists during our time apart and I think we can all be appreciative of that. Spring is in the air and whether it is outside at a music festival or on a your back patio under a blanket with a cup of tea, there is nothing better than the combination of good weather and good music. 

I just bought my ticket a few months ago to the sold out Sweet Life Festival and I can say with confidence that I will be in good company come May 10th. Obviously I was 100% sold on going after seeing the line-up. My eyes had barely glazed over Lana del Rey and Bastille before I was jumping for joy.

But one of the best parts about going to musical festivals? Finding new favorites! And so now I present to you - Hozier.

At only 24, Irish musician Andrew Hozier-Byrne is already tackling the indie music scene and doing so quite powerfully with politically charged songs like "Take Me To Church".

He has a bunch of good stuff, but "Someone New" (you know I love a good acoustic YouTube video) is an absolute favorite.

And I couldn't help myself, I had to post a third because his cover of "We Are Young" is just so darn good I could cry.

ENJOY
