Harry Edward Styles is an English singer. His musical career began in 2010 as a solo contestant on the British music competition series The X Factor.
Harry Edward Styles was born on February 1, 1994, in Redditch, Worcestershire, England. He is an English singer, songwriter, and actor who has been part of the popular boy band One Direction since 2011. He is of English and some Irish descent. His parents are Anne Cox and Desmond "Des" Styles. His father worked as a finance officer for the local council and his mother worked as a quality controller at a frozen food factory.
Styles began performing onstage with a local band called White Eskimo when he was just 16 years old. In 2010, he auditioned for The X Factor UK where he sang acoustic renditions of songs like "Hey There Delilah" by Plain White T's and "Stop Crying Your Heart Out" by Oasis. He finished in third place but was signed to Syco Records as part of the boy band One Direction shortly after the show ended.
The group released five critically acclaimed albums between 2011 and 2015 before going on hiatus in 2016 so each member could pursue solo projects. Styles' debut single "Sign Of The Times" was released in April 2017 to critical acclaim and debuted at number one on the UK Singles Chart. His self-titled solo album was released in May 2017 and topped charts around the world including the US Billboard 200 chart. To date he has released two solo albums with more than 20 singles and has won numerous awards including an American Music Award for Best New Artist in 2017.
