Background and release
Williams announced the release of Britpop on 21 May 2025. He stated,
"I set out to create the album that I wanted to write and release after I left Take That in 1995. It was the peak of Britpop and a golden age for British Music. I’ve worked with some of my heroes on this album; it's raw, there are more guitars and it's an album that's even more upbeat and anthemic than usual. There's some 'Brit' in there and there's certainly some 'pop' too – I'm immensely proud of this as a body of work and I'm excited for fans to hear this album".[1]
Singles
On 21 May 2025, alongside the announcement of the album and tease of the album cover artwork, Williams released the lead single, "Rocket". The single features British rock guitarist, and Black Sabbath co-founder and member, Tony Iommi.[2][3] The single debuted at number 36 on the UK Singles Sales Chart.[4]
Tour
Williams is set to embark on The Britpop Tour throughout 2025, beginning in the United Kingdom.[5][6]
