Liam's new music

On 24th August, Liam released four new tracks: "First Time" (featuring French Montana), "Home With You", "Depend On It" and "Slow".

 “I like [the EP] being a little storybook. It’s four tracks, it’s not quite an album. There was a lot of songs on the album that I love but – everything was all a bit happy, in that vein, and sometime [life’s] not. I think it’s important that people know one, how I’m feeling a little bit and two, kinda what happens with me […] for me, in my relationships so far that I’ve been through kinda have this little cycle where, of what this EP represents. I can’t give away too much but this is how relationships have gone for me so far. I feel like there might be a lot of people in the world that feel the same. This one’s for that crowd of singletons, let’s say”. (Ash London Live)
 “This is, I would say, the closest thing to ‘me’ that I’ve done so far. I think it’s very hard sometimes to be honest with the way the industry is sometimes. There is a part of me that’s definitely is what Strip That Down is, but it doesn’t necessarily represent me and maybe that’s not something I really wanna be represented by. Fantastic song, and I think it’s more of a jovial thing, it’s not to be taken too seriously. I’m not genuinely like, ‘look at me in the club’, to be honest with you I’m barely in the bloody club. I’m up early in the morning, in the gym and doing yoga.” (Ash London Live)
“I think Slow is actually one my favorites in this as well because I feel like it’s the most closest thing to a One Direction-y type, boyband-y chorus but it’s a spin of a dance song as well so it’s kinda inspired from somewhere else.” (Ash London Live)

Eight years of One Direction



Throwing it back to our iconic One Direction interview. A few facts about this pic: • We told the boys to hold up their favourite photo from the autobiography, as you can see, Louis was a solid favourite. • There was a plate of half eaten full-English breakfast right by my feet, no idea who it belonged to. • We were one of the only full group interviews of the day so the boys were all messing about like naughty schoolchildren because they were excited to all be together. • Contrary to popular belief, Zayn was full of life, joking with the others, and actually seemed happy to be there and like he was having the time of his life. • All of them were incredibly polite and friendly, I was just most surprised by Zayn

Harry in Los Angeles

NIGHT 1      13th July

“I’ll be honest. I think I ripped my trousers. I just felt a little pop. Right up there. So I apologize in advance if anyone gets an eyeful. Oh, calm down! It’s a family show!”

NIGHT 2        14th July
“Good evening, Los Angeles. Welcome to the final show!"
"Girl Crush" on stage B
“I’m gonna go away for a little while, make some more music. And then I’ll be back soon. I’m so honoured to play in front of strong men and women every night, and thank you for trusting me to come.”
Harry sang "Kiwi" three times!
“At this point in his meteoric young career, Styles could do anything. So what a pleasure that he’s out here playing slashing guitar tracks, writing vulnerable lyrics and queering up arena rock for a whole new generation of open-minded, big-hearted teen fans.”    (LA Times)
Off Tour

Kissy. Thank you for coming out to see us, it has been a pleasure playing for you all. I’m off to write some more music and I hope I’ll be seeing you again very soon. Thank you to my band, the crew, and all of you for making this tour so wonderful. Treat people with kindness. Goodbye for now. I love you all. H
