Disco, Occasionally will be released on 6 March. It was produced by Kid Harpoon, the British songwriter and producer who has worked on all of Styles\u2019 previous albums. The artwork shows the 31-year-old pop star wearing sunglasses and ducking beneath a disco ball seemingly suspended from the night sky.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">The 12-song track list has not been shared \u2013 nor any music \u2013 but Styles\u2019 web store offered packages including vinyl, cassettes, T-shirts, what appears to be an analogue camera and a bum bag. The site seemed to immediately crash on the announcement.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">The long-awaited album news followed Styles sending a voice note of him singing \u201cwe belong together\u201d to fans who had signed up to a WhatsApp promo line earlier in the day.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">It has been reported that Styles will give a second residency at Madison Square Garden in New York after playing 15 sold-out shows at the venue in 2022. It is also rumoured that Styles will hold a residency at the Co-op Live in Manchester, in which he is an investor. He has been tipped by bookies as a potential headliner of Glastonbury 2027 after the festival takes a fallow year this summer.<\/p>\n<p>The artwork for Harry Styles\u2019 album Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally comes four years after Harry\u2019s House, which reached No 1 around the world and was certified triple platinum in the UK with more than 900,000 certified sales. It won the coveted album of the year at the 2023 Grammy awards in addition to two other categories. It was also named album of the year at the 2023 Brit awards and spawned the hit single As It Was, his most-streamed song on Spotify with 4.2bn streams.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">The last new music Styles released was Forever, Forever, an eight-and-a-half minute instrumental song played on piano that he previously performed on the final date of his 2023 tour. Each of Styles\u2019 previous albums was co-produced by Kid Harpoon and Tyler Johnson.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">The album will be Styles\u2019 first since the death of his former One Direction bandmate Liam Payne in October 2024 at the age of 31. Payne fell from the third-floor balcony of a hotel in Buenos Aries. In a statement released at the time, Styles said that Payne\u2019s \u201cgreatest joy was making other people happy, and it was an honour to be alongside him as he did it\u201d. One Direction were active from 2010 to 2016 after being formed on The X Factor.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Outside music, Styles has made headlines as a marathon runner. He finished the 2025 Tokyo marathon in three hours and 24 minutes in March, but blitzed his own time at the Berlin marathon in September, achieving a coveted <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/sport\/2025\/sep\/22\/harry-styles-berlin-marathon\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">sub-three-hour finish<\/a> in two hours and 59 minutes. His lifestyle brand Pleasing also made the news last year when it launched a sex toy and lube, complementing the line\u2019s apparel, accessories and beauty products.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">In May, he was, mysteriously, spotted in Rome awaiting the announcement of the new pope, Leo XIV, wearing a cap emblazoned with \u201ctechno is my boyfriend\u201d. If his new record contains religious themes, he will be in good company, after Rosal\u00eda\u2019s Lux: released in November, the Catalan star\u2019s fourth album referenced numerous saints from across history.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Styles has also backed Ed Sheeran\u2019s call for the government to provide funding for music education, investing in schools, training for music teachers, grassroots venues, apprenticeships and a diverse curriculum.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">In 2022 he starred in the films My Policeman and Don\u2019t Worry Darling. Styles has no future publicised movie appearances.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"After a brief teaser campaign in which billboards around the world promised \u201cwe belong together\u201d and \u201csee you&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":235780,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[156,157,111,139,69],"class_list":{"0":"post-235779","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-music","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-music","10":"tag-new-zealand","11":"tag-newzealand","12":"tag-nz"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/235779","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=235779"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/235779\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/235780"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=235779"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=235779"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=235779"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
