Backstreet Boys sign to RCA
By Andy Malt | Published on Friday 18 May 2018
The Backstreet Boys have marked their 25th anniversary by signing a new record deal with Sony’s RCA label. Getting straight to work, they’ve released new single ‘Don’t Go Breaking My Heart’. It’s not an Elton John cover, which you may or may not be pleased to hear.
“The minute we heard this song we knew it was special”, says the band’s Kevin Richardson of the new track. “I geeked out over the piano and synths. When that groove drops on the second verse, COME ON. Great verse, hook and melodies. Just makes you wanna listen over and over again”.
Of the new deal, AJ McLean adds: “We’ve been working our ass off for 25 years, and with the support of RCA and our contemporaries, we know we’ll be performing for fans, both old and new, for a really long time. It feels like we’re just getting started”.
RCA is also set to release a new Backstreet Boys album – their ninth – later this year. Watch the video for ‘Don’t Go Breaking My Heart’ here:
