The Backstreet Boys Are…Back
Backstreet's back, alright! Oh yeah!

The Backstreet Boys are swarming on the summer touring scene to embark on a North American headlining tour, which kicks of June 1 in Orland, Florida. The tour aligns itself with the release of This Is Us, the band's forthcoming studio album, which is their seventh. Everybody squeal!

The band, who've sold over 100 million albums in nearly 20 years of backstreetin', will appear on The Bonnie Hunt Show on April 14, debuting their new single, "Bigger." The band, featuring Nick Carter, Howie Dorough, Brian Littrell and AJ McLean—also announced the inaugural Backstreet Boys Cruise, a four-day fan appreciation event that will set sail December 9, departing from Miami, Florida and sailing through Key West and Cozumel. As if that weren’t enough, cruisers – don't even go there!- will be treated to special full performances by the group, Q&A sessions, game show activities, photo sessions with the guys and much more. It's all the BSB that fans could ever want! Since the event occurs around the holidays, now you know exactly what to get the BSB fan in your life for Christmas.

The Backstreet Boys will also host an exclusive and intimate evening in Napa Valley, California on April 11. The special, 8-song acoustic set will take place at The Napa Valley Opera House.
