Harry Styles is an English songwriter, singer, and actor, popularly known as one of the boy band One Direction. Back in 2010, he auditioned in the U.K reality TV show, the X-Factor and that was how he gained his rise to stardom. Although initially, he wanted to be a solo artist, he ended up with the boy band which projected him to the limelight after the competition.
With One Direction, he was the lead vocal in most of their songs; and together they released about four studio albums, went on a couple of tours and won many accolades. The group decided to suspend working together until further notice in March 2016 to pursue individual projects thus prompting Harry to sign a solo record deal with Columbia Records. He released his first single this year and also made a start as an actor in the 2017 film Dunkirk.
Harry’s genre of music is pop and soft rock; he can also play the guitar and has been very active in the music scene since 2010. Born on February 1, 1994, in England, Harry did not have a lot of musical influences around him as many of his immediate family members were farmers. But one of the things he enjoyed doing while younger was singing and following in the footsteps of his then mentors Elvis Presley and Freddie Mercury.
He has long been an enthusiast of philanthropy, supporting the needy since the early days of his career with One Direction. In 2013, he partnered with a leading cancer charity to raise funds for some cancer-related research. In 2015, he visited the Lalela project in South Africa and offered ticket concerts to youths.
Till today, he still regards ‘Lady in Red’ and ‘Free Falling’ as his favorite songs
