Columbia's Hozier headed to downtown L.A.'s Grammy Museum on 10/23 for an in-depth interview with host Scott Goldman and an intimate five-song performance. During the talk, the Irish troubadour discussed the creation of his Wasteland, Baby! album, his childhood obsession with Nina Simone, Irish poetry, collaborating with the great Mavis Staples, his post-tour deep dive into political news (which he somewhat regretted) and much more. His performance was aided by his seasoned touring band, which lent rich, choral backup vocals to the material. Hozier and mates hit L.A.'s Greek Theatre on 10/25 as his tour continues.
