Backstreet Boys
The Backstreet Boys (often abbreviated as BSB) are an American vocal group, formed in Orlando, Florida in 1993. The group consists of AJ McLean, Howie D., Nick Carter, Kevin Richardson, and Brian Littrell. The group rose to fame with their debut international album, "Backstreet Boys" (1996). In the following year they released their second international album "Backstreet's Back" (1997), and their U.S. debut album which continued the group's success worldwide. They rose to superstardom with their third studio album "Millennium" (1999) and its follow-up album, "Black & Blue" (2000). After a two-year hiatus, they regrouped and released a comeback album "Never Gone" (2005).
Boy band
A boy band (or boyband) is loosely defined as a vocal group consisting of young male singers, usually in their teenage years or in their twenties at the time of formation, singing love songs marketed towards young women. Being vocal groups, most boy band members do not play musical instruments, either in recording sessions or on stage, making the term something of a misnomer. However, exceptions do exist. Many boy bands dance as well as sing, usually giving highly choreographed performances. Some such bands form on their own. They can evolve out of church choral or gospel music groups, but are often created by talent managers or record producers who hold auditions.

He is the youngest of three boys, and is a first cousin of fellow Backstreet Boys member Brian Littrell. Growing up, Kevin lived on a 10-hectare farm with his parents and two older brothers (Jerald Wayne Jr. and Tim), one of whom is a model, for 9 years and later lived in a log cabin at Cathedral Domain Camp, a church-owned youth camp which his father ran, where he worked as a camp counselor, met his best friend Keith and was a regular at the camp talent shows until he was 18.
Unbreakable (Backstreet Boys album)
