In a solo venture, Harry Styles has revealed that his highly anticipated fourth album is set to debut this spring. Dubbed “Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally,” the album is scheduled for release on March 6, marking Styles’s first complete album in four years. This new project comes on the heels of his well-received 2022 synth pop album, “Harry’s House,” which earned him the coveted Album of the Year accolade at the 2023 Grammy Awards.
Styles took to Instagram to unveil the cover art for “Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally,” showcasing the 31-year-old singer in casual attire under a glimmering disco ball at night. The post quickly amassed over four million likes within a mere three-hour span. The album, as per a press release, will feature 12 tracks and is under the executive production of Kid Harpoon, a longstanding collaborator with Styles since the inception of his solo career. Harpoon has been instrumental in shaping all of Styles’s albums since his self-titled debut in 2017.
The release of this album confirms ongoing speculations about Styles’s comeback to the music scene. Following a two-year hiatus post his last tour, Styles has been spotted in London engaging in everyday activities, occasionally seen with Zoe Kravitz, his rumored romantic interest. The recent buzz heightened around three weeks ago with the surprise drop of a YouTube video titled “Forever, Forever,” showcasing a piano performance of the same name from the final night of his immensely successful Love on Tour.
The video, spanning over eight minutes, closes with the phrase “We belong together” flashing on the screen, depicting scenes of fans in Italy gearing up for the final tour stop. Speculation intensified with the appearance of posters and billboards in various cities, including Toronto, bearing the phrases “We belong together” and “See you very soon,” along with a new website utilizing the same slogan.
Notably, this album marks Styles’s first release since the tragic passing of his former One Direction bandmate Liam Payne in 2024.
