Singer Harry Styles flaunted an anti-gun violence statement on his guitar during his Texas concert.

The former One Direction member sported a sticker that read "End gun violence" on his guitar during his Dallas show on June 5.

Styles posted a photo of himself and his guitar to his Instagram account, captioned with "Dallas, Live on Tour."

The musician's message comes after the recent shooting massacre at Santa Fe High School in the state.

This isn't the first time Styles has referenced a tragedy while on tour: he recently delivered heartfelt words about the 2017 Manchester terror attack while performing a show in the city's arena.

"I thank you so much for being with me here tonight," he told the crowd. "I grew up coming to my first concerts in this room. I love this room. And I thank you for spending some time with us."

The 24-year-old musician is currently in the midst of a US tour.

He has one more stop in Texas, tonight, where he will play a set at the Toyota Centre in Houston.

Alongside his tour, Styles has also been tapped to star in Gucci's latest fashion campaign which debuted this week.
