For the first time in eight years, ZAYN will perform his music on national television.

NBC formally announced ZAYN for the Tuesday, May 21 edition of “The Tonight Show.” The balance of that night’s lineup has not yet been confirmed, but details should materialize within a few weeks.

ZAYN’s new album “Room Under The Stairs” arrives on May 17, four days prior to the “Fallon” performance. It includes the single “What I Am,” which the artist officially announced during a surprise “Fallon” visit earlier this year.
