Barry Manilow

Posted on 09 June 2026 by Brian Walsh

Grammy, Tony, and Emmy Award-winning icon Barry Manilow has released What A Time, his first album of nearly all-original material in almost 15 years.

Produced by Manilow and longtime collaborator Michael LloydWhat A Time is Manilow’s 33rd studio album and his first nearly all-original LP since 2011’s 15 Minutes.

The album brings together an eclectic, cross-generational group of collaborators, including Kenneth “Babyface” Edmonds, nine-time Grammy winner Dave Cobb, and prolific songwriter Gary Barlow.

The result is a collection that pairs Manilow’s signature songwriting with influences ranging from orchestral pop and ballads to R&B, heartland rock, and gospel.

What A Time… it’s a collection of songs that feel really alive to me right now. They reflect where I’ve been, where I am… and a lot of what I still want to say,” says Manilow. “Each one’s got its own story, its own emotion… but when you put them all together, they really reflect a lifetime of songwriting, and all the different styles I’ve loved working in”.
