The 24-year-old entertainer just revealed that the duo will be taking the stage at this year’s CMA Awards!
“It is unbelievable to perform at the Country Music Awards which I’m really excited about – our first performance of that song. So it’s an exciting time for that song,” Niall announced.
He added, “It will be nerve wracking for me and imagine that it’s literally me and Pink I think are the only two that are coming in from our world; but it should be fun I am looking forward to it. I am going to have to relish it because if I have to dwell on it I will be very sheepish about it.”
After announcing his debut solo album Flicker, the 24-year-old “Slow Hands” singer revealed that he’ll be kicking off the North American leg of his Flicker tour on July 18, 2018 in The Woodlands, Texas and continuing through to cities including Dallas, Salt Lake City, Los Angeles, Kansas City and Toronto.

The only female artists to be nominated at the 2017 Grammy Awards for Best New Artist, are also country artists — and you need to be paying attention to them. There’s a reason they’re nominated.
Kelsea shared in a new interview about being nominated: “It’s the people that love music, do music, judge music, fight for music for a living, saying, ‘We’ve listened to 500 hundred new artists that are eligible this year and we think you’re one of the best five.’ That makes me feel cooler than I have ever felt in my life.”
She added, “I definitely feel like for any female, the odds weren’t necessarily in our favor…we were really maybe underrated a bit in the beginning because we were on this independent label.”
Maren, who is up for three other awards at the event, says the same: “I think it’s a huge step forward for people taking women into consideration because you have to have another perspective on the radio, and I think the Grammys have done a really great solid by recognizing quality art. And I think the girls really brought it this year.”
Earlier, Maia opened up about Callie’s arrest on The Fosters, dishing that her character and mom Stef will connect even more.
“She really just needs to go give a statement because she’s worried about the other people and she wants to give all of the information,” Maia shared. “Mike is very much involved as well because he’s at the police station anyway. You see the mothers find out the full extent.”
She adds, “Stef and Callie really connect over their sense of social justice and that kind of need to fix everything. They’re very similar in a lot of ways. I don’t think Stef is mad at her. She really understands [the situation]…they’re just worried.”
