Two-time BRIT Award-winning sensation Becky Hill have announced their third studio album. Titled Rebecca, the album will be released on September 25 via Polydor Records.
Rebecca is the sequel to the 2024 century Believe me now? and looks set to be her most personal and artistically exploratory album to date.
The story behind it Rebecca
This album cites themes of ambition, identity, fame and the ups and downs of her life, while balancing humor and vulnerability.
The record strays slightly from her dance background, mixing guitar music with the dance and drum and bass influences that have shaped her career. Rebecca has been inspired by the sounds of Blur, The Prodigy, Chase & Status and Fred Again…, but will equally delight her longtime fans who discovered her on The voice.
Taking to Instagram, Becky said: “The name Rebecca primarily means ‘to bind’ or ‘to tie’. Due to its root, it is often interpreted symbolically as meaning ‘captivating beauty’, ‘to tie up’ or a ‘cord of beauty.’
Rebecca. My third and most personal album to date. this is everything i’ve lived, breathed and dreamed about for the past 18 months. I took down tools and went back to the drawing board and wrote this for me and no one else. I have loved every second of writing this work.”
The album announcement comes alongside new single ‘More! More! More!’, which is the perfect statement for Becky’s new era. The pulsating track is a playful take on the reality of spending over a decade navigating the music industry, along with the stress and anxiety people feel in modern life. ‘More! More! More!’ also features a music video directed by Joseph Delaney, which capitalizes on the song’s chaos.
Speaking about the song, Becky said: “The song is about the push and pull of never being happy, doing too much but it never feels like enough. Ignoring how I feel and pushing myself in fear of losing the job I love more than anything in the world. It’s satirical and tongue in cheek, but still very much rooted in my lived experience. This is not an industry where I work more in my creative industry. do it, I do this to myself.”
Becky Hill – “More! More! More!”

She will also headline the Together Again Festival at Bolesworth Castle in Chester on July 25.
