Harry Styles of One Direction performs onstage during 106.1 KISS FM's Jingle Ball 2015 presented by Capital One at American Airlines Center on Dec. 1, 2015 in Dallas.

Harry Styles brought his A-game for his first post-One Direction visit to Saturday Night Live. He also brought a sharp suit, his Bowie-esque vocals, and some Beatles-style bass lines to the April 15 episode.

In addition to appearing in an opening monologue dance routine, a Family Feudsketch as Mick Jagger, and a Civil War boy band skit, Styles performed an intense rendition of his first solo single, “Sign of the Times,” from his forthcoming, self-titled debut album, just announced to release on May 12.

Styles' second performance, "Tell Me Something," closed with a few blissful bars of a capella and tight, multi-part harmony (and the band member in a maroon vintage tux didn't hurt, either).

The singer last graced the SNL stage in December 2014 with the rest of One Direction.
