Headliner Prediction: Hozier
So, based on the word from folks who typically know things, Hozier has more or less been confirmed as one of the headliners for Bonnaroo. Both 'Roo and GovBall are LiveNation festivals and often share bookings. He has a decent cross-genre audience, some cross-generational appeal, and a significant queer following. He just sold out a multi-night run at Forest Hills this year, which means the overall draw is there.
There's an argument to be made that there's a risk of overexposure in the market given that FHS run, but it'll have been around a year between that and the festival dates. He has no currently-announced conflicts. He has never played GovBall.
I don't have enough information to mark this as anything other than speculation, but I'm going to go ahead and make a Fearless Prediction: Hozier will be one of the headliners of Governors Ball 2025.

New Kendrick Lamar album
I know he headlined fairly recently, but was curious if y’all felt this new album meant he may be in the running to headline? Assuming he doesn’t tour in NYC around then of course.
