Since the new school year has started…

If you’re looking for an artist that has a similar vibe to Hozier and heavily features woodwinds most of the time then I highly recommend Cosmo Sheldrake

-He makes really whimsical music that features instruments in a way I haven’t seen a lot of people do and even has a song called Birthday Suit that is mostly bassoon and bass clarinet which like never happens!

-He also releases instrumental versions of his songs if you really want to listen to the instrumentals which are amazing on their own and also list every instrument used in the description of the video.
