Musically, I kind of found where exactly where I was and then I think you just gain the confidence knowing that the people want it. Like, you put a tour on sale, or you put an album out, and you don\u2019t know until the tickets are sold and the album sells well. I gained a lot of confidence from that standing in front of, you know, over a million people on that tour. It\u00a0gives you a bit of a boost.<\/p>\n<p>I know I\u2019ve done it for a long time, but like that was the first time I\u2019d played a lot of arenas and all over the world on my own. I just think you just naturally get a confidence from that, and it just makes you more excited to get back into the studio, just knowing people want to hear from you.<\/p>\n<p>        Love Music?<\/p>\n<p class=\"observer-desc mb-2\">\n            Get your daily dose of everything happening in Australian\/New Zealand music and globally.        <\/p>\n<p>        <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/spinner.gif\" width=\"30\" height=\"30\" alt=\"\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Evolving his sound with\u00a0Dinner Party<\/p>\n<p>There were a few things that I took from, like Radiohead or Noel Gallagher or something like that, where like the cadence of a verse, I tried to get the least amount of words into a sentence as possible. I was just elongating some of my phrases, and I think you hear that in songs like \u2018Flowers\u2019 and \u2018Little More Time\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019re always picking up stuff from different songwriters\u2026 there\u2019s a lot of American classic rock I grew up on, a lot of that nineties stuff from over here, and singer-songwriter stuff. You can always expect to hear a little bit of everything from me, to be honest, because you can\u2019t help but like play your influences \u2013 not that you\u2019re sitting there going, I\u2019m going to write a Noel Gallagher song! But, you can\u2019t help but pick up and play it. Like, the first song I ever learned on the guitar everybody else was \u2018Wonderwall\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Reflecting on the One Direction days<\/p>\n<p>I had a great time travelling the world at 17,18 years old, playing to millions of people every night. It\u2019s exactly what I had dreamt up in a way, you know? That\u2019s why I think I love touring as well. The touring part is exactly what I thought it would be, you know? You get on a bus, you travel, you travel all over the place at 8 o\u2019clock every night, you get on stage, and you play to fans.<\/p>\n<p>My first ever show I ever went to, I remember looking at the stage and being like, I want to do that. That feeling has become more palpable to me the older I\u2019ve gotten, the more I understand myself, why I do it, what I do it for.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Niall Horan joins this week\u2019s episode of the\u00a0Rolling Stone Uncut\u00a0podcast!
