“Drive Safe” is out now: Myles Smith drops his first 2026 single with Niall Horan, turning real friendship into intimate, bright pop.
After weeks of building momentum on social media, Myles makes it official with a release that feels like a career marker. “Drive Safe” is the duo’s first official collaboration, co-written by Myles Smith and Niall Horan, and it’s now available.
A collaboration rooted in something real
Myles says collaborations only matter when they come from a genuine place — and that’s exactly what happened here. His emotionally precise writing meets Niall’s globally recognized melodic instinct, shaping a track that feels intimate and effortless, built on honest storytelling and a shared creative bond.
“Collaborations only make sense to me when they come from something real, and working with Niall was exactly that… Our friendship shaped the song, and I hope you can feel that in every verse!”
The message inside “Drive Safe”
At its core, “Drive Safe” is about the fact that life will always throw obstacles your way — but the right people make those moments easier to carry. Balancing optimism with honesty, it reframes uncertainty as part of the journey rather than something to fear.
That idea lands in the line “Life is a road, don’t know what’s along the way, so drive safe,” which plays like a steadying reminder: connection makes the hardest stretches less intimidating. Sonically, the song mirrors the sentiment with bright guitar-driven energy that feels warm and welcoming.
Warm tones, open production, standout vocals
With warm, uplifting sonics, the track shows Myles sharpening what has become his signature: emotional storytelling without clutter. Clear acoustic textures and subtle, open production leave room for both voices to shine, while Niall’s feature adds a comforting lift that deepens the song’s sense of closeness and hope.
Arriving during a major growth run
The release lands at a peak moment for Myles Smith. Over the last 12 months, he has played to more than 100,000 fans across sold-out headline shows in the UK, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and North America, plus a packed set at Glastonbury.
In 2025, he won the Ivor Novello Award (Most Performed Work) and the Rolling Stone UK Breakthrough Award, and appeared on the magazine’s special awards issue. This summer, he’ll join Ed Sheeran as the main opening act on Sheeran’s U.S. tour.
With “Drive Safe,” Myles Smith signals a new chapter defined by emotional clarity, artistic confidence, and continued global momentum — with Niall Horan alongside him for a standout start to 2026.
