Harry Styles: Announces Fourth Album 'Kiss All The Time. Disco Occasionally'

After days of cryptic posters appearing in major cities worldwide, Harry Styles has officially confirmed his return with a new studio album titled ‘Kiss All The Time. Disco Occasionally’.

The rollout began with a series of minimalist adverts featuring the phrase "We Belong Together," which were spotted by fans in locations ranging from London and Paris to New York and Sydney. The teaser campaign shifted gears when Styles sent a lo-fi voice note to fans via WhatsApp, featuring a brief snippet of him singing the phrase over a muted melody.

Release Details and Visuals

Scheduled for release on 6 March, the album sees Styles reuniting with long-time collaborator and producer Kid Harpoon. The cover art depicts the 31-year-old pop star in sunglasses, ducking beneath a disco ball that appears to be suspended from the night sky.

While the 12-song tracklist remains under wraps, the announcement triggered a digital frenzy. Styles’ official web store: offering vinyl, cassettes, and eclectic merchandise like analogue cameras and bum bags, briefly crashed due to the overwhelming volume of traffic.

Tour Rumours and Residencies

The news has reignited speculation regarding Styles’ return to the stage. Reports suggest he may be planning a second residency at Madison Square Garden in New York, following his historic 15-night sold-out run in 2022. 

Outlets, including BBC News, also report that there are murmurs of Styles hosting a residency at the Co-op Live in Manchester later this year, as he is a major investor in the arena, which opened in May 2024. At the time of writing, though, no live shows have been announced

Looking further ahead, bookmakers have already tipped him as a frontrunner to headline Glastonbury 2027, following the festival’s scheduled fallow yea

A Highly Anticipated Follow-up

This project marks Styles’ first release in four years, following the monumental success of ‘Harry’s House’. That album, which featured global hits like ‘As It Was’, ‘Late Night Talking’, and ‘Music For A Sushi Restaurant’, earned him Album of the Year at both the Grammy and Brit Awards. To date, ‘As It Was’ remains his most successful solo venture, surpassing 4.2 billion streams on Spotify.

‘Kiss All The Time. Disco Occasionally’ also represents a new chapter for Styles following the tragic passing of his former One Direction bandmate, Liam Payne, in October 2024. Reflecting on their time together in a statement last year, Styles noted that it was an "honour" to perform alongside Payne, whose "greatest joy was making other people happy."

The Cultural Impact

As the countdown to 6th March begins, the music industry is bracing for what is likely to be the defining pop moment of 2026. Styles’ ability to blend high-fashion aesthetics with vulnerable songwriting has cemented his status as a generational icon. With ‘Kiss All The Time. Disco Occasionally’, he seems poised to bridge the gap between his recent introspective work and a more vibrant, dance-infused sound.
