UK pop icon Niall Horan will release his new album ‘Dinner Party’ later this year.
The One Direction hero turned solo with his platinum-certified album ‘Flicker’, which boasted the colossal global hit ‘Slow Hands’. Niall then followed this with 2020 album ‘Heartbreak Weather’, which topped the charts on both sides of the Atlantic. Finally, he shared ‘The Show’ – revisit our review HERE.
Working on a new album has been under way for some time, with Niall Horan set to release his fourth solo LP ‘Dinner Party’ this summer.
Out on June 5th, the title track will be the first single – and it lands on March 20th, this coming Friday. Julian Bunetta and John Ryan, Niall’s longtime collaborators, served as executive producers on the album.

Speaking to Capital recently, Niall Horan intimated that the song was inspired by his girlfriend, and that it forms the cornerstone of the record as a whole.
He said: “I love this song I wrote it last summer. Actually, we rented a house in Surrey, and we did a little week out there, a few of the producers and writers that I work with. So, we were out there for a week just writing tune after tune. And you spend a lot of time writing and nothing is coming. And then this was the one that I was like ‘okay, this is where the album starts from here.’ Because my relationship started on the night that this song is about. And I realised that that dinner party became a bigger thing than just sitting around, getting drunk and having a bit of food. It’s become the next six years of my life and hopefully the rest of it. So, yeah, it allowed me to then go and write songs that were about all of the moments of this said relationship.”
