Gary Barlow has been a busy man recently and it seems all his efforts have paid off as the singer is to be celebrated with an honorary award from the music business.

The singer-songwriter will receive the annual Music Industry Trusts Award for his contribution to the music industry over the past two decades.

Last year Jools Holland took home the award, while previous winners have included Sir Elton John, Sir Tom Jones and Kylie Minogue.

David Munns, chairman of the award committee, praised Barlow: "He is one of the UK's most accomplished artists - a unique musician, songwriter and producer who embodies both success and distinction, and who serves as a dedicated ambassador for many charities.''

"I can't think of another artist who works with both Simon Cowell and Her Majesty The Queen."

Meanwhile, Gary Barlow is set to team up with Andrew Lloyd Webber for a number of new Take That songs, the singer has revealed.

The Take That star previously teamed up with Webber for the official Diamond Jubilee single, 'Sing', last month.

Andrew revealed for one new song and they're planning to continue writing together on holiday in Spain this summer.
