1D’s Liam reveals new music as he collabs with new Irish boyband

One Direction have only been gone a hot second and one member is already sharing the fruits of the bands dreaded hiatus. 

Liam Payne has revealed that he co-wrote the song The Night We Met, the new single of Louis Walsh's boyband, Hometown. 

The six Irish lads can be seen in the video breaking into the Olympia theatre in Dublin to perform the song on stage. 

While the single has been doing the rounds on Irish TV and radio, it was not until Liam tweeted the song that we realised it was co-written by boyband royalty.  

Hey everyone almost Christmas check out this song I did with hometown and Jamie Scott https://t.co/iQwk532Rew listen loud and enjoy!

One Direction announced that they would be taking a one year hiatus from the group in order to take a well deserved break and pursue solo projects.

Hometown were put together by Louis Walsh in 2014 and just released their debut self-titled album.
