Jimmy Fallon started the programme with David Bowie's "Let's Dance" and introduced Harry as the musical guest.
Harry performed in two sketches. One was "Celebrity Family Feud", where he played Mick Jagger.

Watch the skit here:
The other sketch was a Broadway-like scene from the American Civil War with Harry as a captive Confederate soldier. And his fake beard almost came off! ;)
The whole sketch here:
Harry sang live "Sign of the Times". It was the first performance of the song on stage and Harry's debut as a solo artist. Harry nailed it - the song sounded great!
Then he sang another song. Contrary to expectations, it was not "Kiwi" but "Ever Since New York". And Harry played the guitar for the first time on stage!
Harry was incredible. His old friend Nick Grimshaw was there to support him.
GQ Magazine published a nice article on Harry's performance:
“Harry Styles joined
host Jimmy Fallon tonight on Saturday Night Live as the musical guest but from what we saw, the
former One Direction member stole the show, first when he shimmied to David
Bowie's "Let's Dance" during Fallon's monologue, then channeled a
young Mick Jagger during a '70s-era Family
Feud sketch, and finally, when he performed for the
first time on national TV as a solo artist. And while the singer's first live
performance of his Bowie-esque single "Sign of the Times" is sure to
take over headlines, it was what the stylish Brit was wearing that held our
attention tonight.”
