THE PANIC YEARS
by BRADLEY SIMPSON

The Panic Years is the Top 10 debut solo album of The Vamps' singer and guitarist Bradley Simpson. 

Released 28 February 2025 via Insanity Records/Sony, Bradley told Official Charts: "I never consciously made the decision or said 'I'm going to make a solo album now,' it just happened. There were a few songs I started writing that weren't right for the band, or for sending to other people. They were just too personal."

It just snowballed from there, and it's been such a fun journey. I feel like I've learned a lot about myself! I've written a lot about the last 10 years of my life, all of the ups and downs.

On 7 March 2025 The Panic Years landed straight in at Number 1 on the Official Albums Chart, giving Brad his first Top 10 album as a solo artist. Accepting his Official Top 10 Award from Official Charts, Bradley Simpson says:

“This is wild, thank you to Official Charts and to anyone who got the album. I love you all, the support’s been incredible.

“It’s a body of work I’m really proud of. I didn’t put any expectations on this album, so it’s a complete surprise that it’s gone into the Top 10! The fans have been so supportive of it. I’m going to celebrate with a beer; seeing my pals and chilling out.”
