Today, Capitol Records and Virgin/EMI release “Slow Hands,” the new single from Niall Horan, who co-wrote the song.
Niall’s assured vocal combined with an infectious guitar lick, and the syncopated bassline, underscore the simmering desire the song celebrates.
Says Niall of the track, which he recorded at Los Angeles’ legendary East/West Studios: “I’m so happy to be releasing ‘Slow Hands.’ I’ve been listening to a lot of early 80’s stuff lately and been inspired by that heavy bass and the funky guitar sound. It’s another flavor to my album that I’m excited to share.”
Produced by Julian Bunetta, “Slow Hands” can be downloaded and streamed below.
