Shout it from the rooftops

If you’ve been scrolling on social media in the last few months, you’ve probably seen someone posting “a moment that feels like Hozier’s yell.” We’re here to explain what that means (in case you missed it), and give some examples of Greenville moments that feel like Hozier’s yell.

What does it mean?

Irish musician Hozier is known for his soulful voice and popular songs like “Too Sweet” and “Take Me to Church.” He’s also featured on Noah Kahan‘s song “Northern Attitude” + adlibs a “yell” that people said made them feel “weightless and euphoric.”

Greenville examples

We’ve seen a few businesses hop on this trend, but we’re going to share a few picks that make us feel like Hozier’s yell.
Share yours with us.
