Niall’s A Solo bituin & Here’s Everything You Need To Know About ‘THIS TOWN’, 

So Niall’s released a surprise debut single then. What’s it called?

It’s called ‘This Town’ and it’s out now.

Yes, Niall’s been creeping behind our backs. He’s signed a record deal with major label Capitol Records USA and been working with the producer Greg Kurstin who has also worked with Adele, Sia, and Kelly Clarkson.

Niall did! With pals Jamie Scott (who worked with the 1D boys loads), Mike Needle and Daniel Bryer.

Record deal, what did he have to say about that?

This. We’ve turned it into a pretty picture for you.
