Back Street Boys

With the next leg of their tour less than a month away, the Backstreet Boys have further filled out the summer itinerary behind the group's most recent Top 10 album, "This Is Us."

The road trip, which originally kicked off in April, continues May 23 in New York City, and now includes five Canadian shows in August.

"This Is Us," the boy band's seventh studio set and follow-up to 2007's "Unbreakable," surfaced in October on Jive Records, and is the group's second album since the departure of original member Kevin Richardson. The 11-track effort, which peaked at No. 9 on The Billboard 200, features new material that Nick Carter, Howie Dorough, Brian Littrell and AJ McLean collaborated on alongside songwriters and producers like T-Pain, RedOne and Claude Kelly.

"With this album, we feel like we kind of went back to what people really know of the Backstreet Boys, the sound of the pop/R&B with a little Euro-dance influence," Dorough explained in an interview last fall with LiveDaily. "We felt this is what the Backstreet Boys are really known for."

In December, the outfit will depart from South Florida for a sold-out five-day cruise that will visit Key West and Cozumel before returning to port.
