Hozier has been making waves in the music world with two major announcements this week that cement his place among rock's elite collaborators. American Songwriter reports he joined Elvis Costello and others for an unforgettable group performance of The Band's "The Weight" at the 10th annual Love Rocks NYC benefit concert on March 5 at New York's Beacon Theatre, a star-powered gig highlighting his rising profile in high-profile charity events with potential lasting impact on his philanthropic legacy.
Even bigger news dropped March 12 when ABC News and The Music announced Hozier's feature on the upcoming tribute album "20th Century Paddy – The Songs of Shane MacGowan," set for release November 13 via Rubyworks. This star-studded project honors the late Pogues frontman, who passed in 2023, and pairs Hozier in a duet with Jessie Buckley, as confirmed by Ground News—joining Bruce Springsteen, Dropkick Murphys, Tom Waits, Primal Scream, The Libertines, Johnny Depp, Kate Moss, and Pogues members themselves. Springsteen's already released cover of "A Rainy Night in Soho" sets the tone, with half the royalties benefiting Dublin's Simon Community for the homeless. Hozier's involvement, building on his December 2025 Saturday Night Live cover of "Fairytale of New York" complete with strings, backing vocals, and faux snow, underscores his deep ties to Irish music heritage and could define a key chapter in his discography.
No confirmed public appearances, business moves, or social media mentions in the past few days beyond these, though fans buzz about his MacGowan affinity. Nothing major in the last 24 hours, but this tribute positions Hozier as a torchbearer for punk-folk icons.
