WATCH: Hozier just made a surprise appearance on the EP main stage with a David Bowie tribute

We can be heroes.

Hozier just made a surprise appearance on the Electric Picnic main stage as part of the Trinity Orchestra’s 1pm slot. The singer-songwriter wasn’t listed on any of the promo for the festival, and the crowd were suitably delighted when he strode out on the stage.

Trinity Orchestra were playing a set of David Bowie classics, and orchestra alumnus Hozier took to the stage to deliver a phenomenal cover of Bowie’s Heroes.

We pushed our way to the front to get the incredible footage, which you can watch below.
