History of The Backstreet Boys
The Backstreet Boys is an American boy band that formed in 1993 in Orlando, Florida. The group is composed of Nick Carter, Howie Dorough, AJ McLean, Kevin Richardson, and Brian Littrell. They were instantly a hit but rose to superstardom with their album Millennium in 1999.
After a brief hiatus and performing as a quartet for a while, the group jumped back to their old form in 2012 when Kevin Richardson re-joined the group permanently. To celebrate their 20th Anniversary, they released the album “In a World Like This” and then released the follow-up Album “DNA” in 2019 which ruled the charts with the number one position. It is for their DNA World Tour that they are visiting two Indian Cities.
