Niall Horan confirms that he will be touring in North America.
Singer-songwriter Niall Horan recently announced that his third studio album, ‘The Show’, would be released on June 9 this year – and many fans are hoping that an album tour will follow suit.
Fans are in luck. In a recent interview with Pride Magazine, Horan confirmed that he is planning on touring soon, though he has not yet confirmed any specifics such as dates or cities.
There’s a tour in the pipeline. I’m working on it right now and I’ll be letting people know hopefully soon,” Horan divulged.
The former One Direction band member also revealed he plans on playing multiple shows this summer at various festivals, and is excited to get back into performing.
“It’ll be just good to get back on the road doing what I love,” Horan told PRIDE.
“Doing shows all over the world is something that I just can’t wait to do again. It’s the best feeling.”
Niall Horan enters new era with upcoming album ‘The Show’
With Horan’s album set to drop in early June, fans are eager to see the singer’s musical progression since his last album release three years ago. Horan himself has hinted at what fans can expect from ‘The Show’ and how his sound is evolving throughout his career.
“Fans are getting a new version of me [and] the gradual progression that I’ve been able to make musically and as a person over the last five years,” he said.
“It’s definitely a more mature sound, but it’s still me! It sounds different, but it’s still Niall.”
Horan has been in the spotlight since 2010 when boyband One Direction was formed on the televised music competition, The X Factor. In the thirteen years since he’s kept a sizable following, and with his fans all over the world, Horan enjoys creating art that people appreciate.
“I’m 13 years in and they’re still there listening and engaged,” Horan said about his loyal fans.
“I’m having more fun with it than ever. The older I get, the more grateful you get. It’s been an amazing ride I definitely don’t want to stop. I want to stick around forever and keep having fun with them.”
Niall Horan reveals his favorite One Direction songs
In the same interview with PRIDE, Horan gave a glimpse into what his top tracks are from One Direction, adding that he still listens to these bops regularly.
“‘Stockholm Syndrome’ was a deep cut from the records,” he disclosed.
“A lot of deep cuts, songs that a lot of people don’t know – ‘Fireproof,’ ‘Drag Me Down’ [and] ‘Story of My Life’ are good ones. There’s a lot of songs!”
