Radio Disney leaks news of Niall Horan’s debut solo track This Town

Radio Disney has seemingly announced that Niall Horan will drop his debut solo single ‘This Town’ any day soon.

The station has sparked a frenzy amongst Directioners online when a tweet was sent from its official Twitter account telling its listeners to tune in to hear Niall’s first post-One Direction track.

Fans got wind of the news when #ThisTown started trending on Twitter and before the tweet could be deleted by Radio Disney, they screen grabbed the announcement.

The tweet read: "SURPRISE! Listen to Radio Disney RIGHT NOW to hear @NiallOfficial’s brand new song #ThisTown! And stay tuned to hear from Niall! (sic)"

The Irish singer recently signed a solo deal with Universal, leaving his old label Sony and ‘X Factor’ boss Simon Cowell behind.

And on Wednesday night (28.09.16), Canadian singer Shawn Mendes confirmed on ‘The Late Late Show with James Corden’ that he had planned to work with the 1D singer.

He told host Corden that he "definitely" planned to work with the pop star.

And adding to the rumour mill that new music is expected soon – Niall, 23, already has a solo page on Apple Music and Spotify.

When the track does drop Niall will be following in the footsteps of former bandmate Zayn Malik, who released his debut album ‘Mind of Mine’ in March 2016.

Harry Styles is also starting to work on his own material and has inked a solo record deal with Columbia Records, while Liam Payne has been in America recently recording new music.

Officially, the boy band is on hiatus.
