Take That were one of the most popular bands of the 90s and since they reformed in 2005 they have still kept their likeability and credibility amongst fans old and young alike. The Take That members include Gary Barlow, Robbie Williams, Mark Owen, Jason Orange and Howard Donald. Their style is mainly pop, rock with a few dance numbers, but they do both ballads and more upbeat tracks, so appeal to a fairly wide audience although mainly females.
The Take That band have had great success in the UK with 6 albums having gone to number 1 as well as 11 singles. Most of their other singles have landed a spot in the top 40 in the UK charts. They have also had success in Ireland and some countries around Europe such as Norway where Back For Good went to Number 1 and other hit singles in Denmark and Germany. The group have been nominated for and won many awards, such as taking the title for Best British Single many times at the BRITS as well as Best British Live Act, Best British Group, Mastercard Album of the Year, and Best British Video. Other triumphs include Best Group and Best Live Act at The MTV Europe Music Awards, and an Ivor Novello Award in 2008 for PRS Most Performed Work, amongst many others.

The group have released six studio albums in total, the first being in 1992 called Take That & Party which went to Number 2 in the UK and Ireland charts, Everything Changes in 1993 which went to Number 1, Nobody Else in 1995 which hit Number 1 again and also in Austria, Germany, Italy and Switzerland. The next release was in 2006 and called Beautiful World which took the Number 1 position again, followed two more top hit albums called The Circus in 2008 and the most recent being Progress in 2010.

Gary Barlow is the lead vocalist within the group and also writes most of their songs. He has even written for other artists including Will Young, Charlotte Church and Shirley Bassey. Robbie Williams left the band in 1995 and enjoyed a huge solo career with a total of 57 million albums sold across the world. Some of his most popular hit singles include Millennium, She’s The One, Eternity, Rock DJ, Somethin’ Stupid and Radio which all went to Number One in the UK charts. He rejoined the group in 2010 to a big hype amongst both the media and fans. There is great enthusiasm about Take That tour 2011 in people.
