From Take That to Swing King: The Robbie Williams Story
Robbie Williams is a fifteen-time BRIT Award-winning English pop singer and one of the most successful British solo artists of all time.
His career began in 1990 as a member of the boy band Take That. During his time with the group, they sold 25 million records before Robbie left in 1995 to pursue a solo career.
Launching into solo stardom, Williams released a string of hits including Angels, Strong, Rock DJ, No Regrets, and Let Me Entertain You. He later shifted styles with his hugely successful swing album Swing When You’re Winning.
At the height of his fame, Robbie signed what was reported to be the biggest U.K. record deal ever—leaving EMI for Universal and a $100 million cheque. The deal, arranged by consulting firm Ingenious Media, aimed to give the label greater control as Robbie set his sights on breaking America.
That American breakthrough never quite happened, but Williams has reportedly enjoyed the low-key lifestyle of living in the Hollywood Hills, where he can walk down the street unrecognised.
In 2010, Robbie rejoined Take That for a reunion tour, no doubt slipping Angels into the setlist.
Arguably his greatest commercial milestone came in 2006 when he entered The Guinness Book of World Records for selling 1.6 million tickets in a single day for his Close Encounters tour.
