Fred again.. Plays Unreleased Harry Styles Song During Alexandra Palace Show in London

Fred again.. played an unreleased track from Harry Styles‘ forthcoming album Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally during a show on Thursday (Feb. 26) at London’s Alexandra Palace.

A 90-second clip taken from the crowd and originally shared by Pop Crave finds the British producer playing a string-drenched and slowed-down ballad by Styles. “But we sleep half the night with your head on my chest me and you/ There’s only me and you,” Styles sings on the plucky song. Watch the video here.


It follows logic that the song would be premiered during a dance music set, given the album’s disco orientation indicated by its title. Thus far, the only official release from the project is January’s “Aperture,” which is currently at No. 28 on the Billboard Hot 100. This is the song’s fourth week on the chart, where it debuted at No. 1 earlier this month.

Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally will be released on March 6.

Meanwhile, Fred again.. is between a pair of hometown shows at London’s revered Alexandra Palace, where he’ll play again on Friday. The first show on Thursday featured appearances by a slew of guests including Benga, Flowdan, Skream, La Roux, Mala and more. After the show, Fred shared a story stating “Thank you London for tonight. Thank you to the ACTUAL legends who joined us. That was insanity. I’m back at my laptop preparing something for tomorrow.”

The producer also released his own new album, USB002, over 10 weeks last fall, releasing a song a week (and occasionally more than that) during a 10 show run that happened across 10 cities in Europe and North America.
