The Backstreet Boys [ tickets ] have announced dates for a second North American leg as they continue to support their most recent album, last fall's "Unbreakable. "
The fully-grown Boys--now a quartet following the 2006 departure of co-founding member Kevin Richardson-- will kick off the tour's new stretch Oct. 30 in Reading, PA. After the initial four US dates, the outing heads to Canada for the remainder of the 14-city trek, concluding Nov. 17 in Kamloops, British Columbia.
Information on pre-sale tickets for individual shows can be found at the Backstreet Boys' fanclub website. The group's full schedule is included below.
"Unbreakable" hit stores last fall. The Boys enlisted an all-star roster of producing talent--including Billy Mann (Sting, Celine Dion) and 'N Sync's JC Chasez--to complete the album, which is the follow-up to 2005's "Never Gone." The set peaked at No. 7 on The Billboard 200 album chart.
The quartet has started searching for songwriting talent to help provide material for a follow-up to "Unbreakable, " according to the group's Howie Dorough.
"We're just going to go out there and really explore," Dorough recently told LiveDaily. "There's a lot of new writers who have come to the table since the last album. We're going to do what we can to make it once again the best record. We're going to do a lot of writing ourselves but as well reach out to great producers to help us."
