To mark the release of her new single and new album, two-time BRIT Award winner Becky Hill will be playing an intimate show at Sheffield Foundry, in conjunction with Bear Tree Records.

Single ‘l0st the pl0t’ is out now with the new album – Rebecca – releasing on 13 November. Her appearance at the Foundry comes on 10 November.

‘l0st the pl0t’ arrives following a summer of highs for Becky, with ‘what do i have to do?’ becoming a viral phenomenon after its satirical ‘BBL Becky’ character made the leap from the official video to her live shows, generating 100 million views on TikTok in just two weeks. She also returned to the charts with the Sonny Fodera collaboration ‘Say Something’.

Driven by Becky’s powerhouse vocal and a production that builds before erupting into an exhilarating beat drop, ‘l0st the pl0t’ captures the darker side of success with characteristic honesty and self-awareness. Its instantly memorable hook – “I’m just another popstar that lost the f*cking plot” – gets straight to the heart of the song, as Becky explores what happens when your sense of self-worth becomes increasingly tied to streaming stats, ticket sales and your position on festival bills.

Becky says, “‘l0st the pl0t’ came from conversations with other artists and realising we’re all going through a lot of the same things. You’re trying to tour, work, keep your house clean, wash your clothes, unpack and repack suitcases, while dealing with barely seeing your family. It’s very easy to lose yourself in the business side of music and let the numbers and pressures take over. The song is me looking at all of that from the inside and recognising how easily you can get lost in it.”

‘REBECCA’ is an unapologetically authentic pop album about what it takes to make a pop album, with a sonic blueprint Becky describes as “curated chaos”. It brings together her deep-rooted love of house and drum ’n’ bass with the guitar music that soundtracked her teenage years, including Pendulum and The Prodigy. Those influences collide across the record as Becky brings guitars into the mix alongside heavy electronic production, pushing her sound into new territory without losing the dance foundations at its core.

The ‘REBECCA’ album is available to pre-order HERE. Becky’s official store offers a numbered limited edition red splatter vinyl, black vinyl and CD. Album bundles are rewarded with a signed A4 art print. A limited amount of tickets are remaining HERE.
