New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Heartbreak Weather includes Niall's new single, "No Judgement," which has already racked up 55 million combined streams worldwide.
Rolling Stone praised the "sultry single" and PEOPLE said, "[The song] "conveys a charming message about accepting someone for who they are."
Niall has played the world's biggest stages and heard his lyrics screamed back at him. He's smashed Guinness records with his old band and shared Guinness pints with fabulous people. He's even seen dolls made in his own devilishly charming image. But for all of that, he is not immune to love's ups and downs. What's different about Niall is that when he makes a breakup album, he doesn't wallow. The result is Heartbreak Weather, a whirlwind of modern pop and nostalgic groove, rambunctious rock and sweeping folk, quiet revelations and shout-along choruses.
"Heartbreak Weather' is nearly a concept album," explains Niall.
"I wanted to write these songs from the start of a relationship through to the end — and from different sides — instead of every song being quite sad and all about me. Because when you go through a breakup, it's not sad all the time."
Alongside the breezy but humid hookup anthem "No Judgement," the heartbroken "Put a
Little Love on Me" and the man-about-town mania of "Nice to Meet Ya" - a track that has amassed more than 300 million streams globally - is a set of songs that ups the energy from Niall's No. 1 solo debut album Flicker.
Tapping influences as wide-ranging as Bruce Springsteen,
Arctic Monkeys and the Weeknd, Niall recorded the album in Los Angeles, London, and the Bahamas with an all-star team that included Teddy Geiger, Julian Bunetta, Tobias Jesso Jr., Greg Kurstin, Mozella and more. Heartbreak Weather sweeps listeners up and onto a journey where the perspective, emotion and music are always shifting. Ultimately, the trip is as healing as it is honest-to-god fun - these songs were made for the stage.
Niall has just wrapped up a weeklong residency on "The Late Late Show with
James Corden" in the USA. View highlights including performances of "Nice To Meet Ya," "Put A
