Harry Styles had bad seats to see the new Pope

Q | Mar 9

Three years ago, Harry Styles was coming off one of the biggest tours in history and had just won album of the year at the Grammys.

Harry told himself he wouldn’t return to the studio until he answered two important questions: what he wanted to say with his music, and why he was making it in the first place. In this Canadian exclusive interview, Tom Power catches up with Harry in Los Angeles to talk about the path that led to his latest album, Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally.
