Niall Horan

Niall James Horan was born on the 13th September 1993. Niall is the only irish member of One Direction and he is from Mullingar, County Westmeath, Ireland. Horan went to an all boys school in his home town were he was a member of the school choir. Before auditioning for the X-Factor Niall used to perform around his town, Once performing as a support act in Dublin for X-Factor's former contestant Lloyd Daniels. Horan has also been playing guitar since childhood and he appears in many One Direction music videos playing the guitar and also when they are performing live on stage. Niall has said he is a 'big-swing' fan. His favourite artists include Michael Buble and Frank Sanatra as well as Dean Martin. Niall also enjoys City Rock music with acts such as Bon Jovi and The Script.

Niall is my personal favourite in One Direction as I like that he can play his own instrument and we also share a similar taste in music.
