Gary Barlow says Take That are workaholics.
The singer – who recently headed back into the studio with his bandmates Mark Owen, Jason Orange and Howard Donald to start on their new album – admits he couldn’t wait to get back to work after a short break.
Speaking at the Ivor Novello Awards in London, Gary said: “We are workaholics and we miss each other. We always planned to take three months off and we needed it because we played a lot of dates last year and, to be honest, it was like, ‘Come on guys, we are getting on a bit now.’ It was probably a few too many. But we are back in the swing of things and really enjoying being back.”
The ‘Patience’ singer predicts the new LP, the follow-up to hit comeback album ‘Beautiful World’, will be ready by December. He said: “We should be back by Christmas. We couldn’t stay away, although I haven’t written the songs yet. There should be a tour as well.”
Take That scooped the gong for Most Performed Work for their hit single ‘Shine’ at the prestigious ceremony held at London’s Grosvenor House Hotel.
