Thirty (30!! Three-zero! 3 X 10!) years ago in April of 1993, Howie Dorough, Nick Carter, AJ McLean, Kevin Richardson, and Brian Littrell came together to form the best-selling boy band of all time: Backstreet Boys. Since then, Backstreet Boys have sold over 100 million records worldwide, making them the best-selling boy band of all time, and one of the world's best-selling music artists. In this three-part Backstreet Boys series, Mary and Kelsey are retelling the incredible story of when they popped, chronicling their rise to fame and their impact on pop culture. Part 1 examines the boys’ backgrounds, their upbringings, and their first years as a music group just before their big break. Instagram: @whentheypoppedpodTikTok: @whentheypoppedEmail: whentheypoppedy2k@gmail.comWebsite: linktree.com/whentheypopped
