Six months after 'Back To You' dropped,Louis Tomlinson has finally announced a new single.

The follow-up to his brilliant Bebe Rexha and Digital Farm Animals collaboration will drop this Friday with its live debut performance happening just one day later during this weekend'sX Factor finale.

'Miss You' is the title of the new song, which will be his first properly solo release after two massive collaborations.

Louis announced the new single by posting its moody artwork on Instagram, a red-lit portrait showing the singer in the middle of a busy club atmosphere.

"New single ‘Miss You’ will be out this Friday with a performance on the The X Factorfinal on the Saturday," he tweeted earlier this week."Can’t wait for this one!"

The song title suggests the song could be a ballad yetthe artwork is more club bop, so we have'no'idea what to expect from this one.

Earlier this year, Louis revealed that his debut solo album is inspired by Arctic Monkeys and Oasis, artists he grew up listening to and admired.

Speaking to BBC Music, he said "My whole mission with this album is to not write these Hollywood-esque songs that talk about some unfathomable crazy love story. I'm so bored of that."

"The way they [Arctic Monkeys and Oasis]tell stories is such an effortless thing. It's real, it's honest and it's to the point, you know?"

Colour us excited to hear what Louis has in store! We can't wait!
