Brian Littrell: Backstreet Boys Moving Ahead Following Richardson's Departure |
"[The sessions] started yesterday, actually," Littrell said on Monday, less than 48 hours after the group announced that original member Richardson, 33, was leaving to pursue unspecified "other interests" (see "Kevin Richardson Quits Backstreet Boys"). Littrell said he and the group's other members Howie Dorough, Nick Carter and A.J. McLean began work on the first two songs for the yet-untitled follow-up to last year's Never Gone. "We're in the process of trying to put this record together for a fourth-quarter release, so we're excited about it." Read More | 28.06.06 | by Talitha |

Kevin is officially leaving the group |
Statement from the other four guys: Earlier this year, after much soul searching, Kevin Richardson came to us and told us that he had decided to leave the group and pursue other interests. He gave his blessing to continue the music without him. We have no intention of replacing Kevin, and the door will always be open for him to return to the Backstreet Boys. We wish him the all the best in his future endeavors. This weekend we are returning to the studio to begin the follow-up to Never Gone, and will see you later this year with a new album. Nick Carter, Howie Dorough, Brian Littrell and AJ McLean Statement from Kevin Richardson After 13 years of what can only be described as a dream come true, I have decided that it is time to leave the Backstreet Boys. It was a very tough decision for me but one that was necessary in order to move on with the next chapter of my life. Howard, Brian, Alex and Nick will always be my little brothers and have my utmost love and support. I would like to thank the Backstreet fans for all the beautiful memories we have shared together and look forward to including you in the next phase of my life. I wish my brothers continued success and look forward to their new album. Kevin Source: backstreetboys.com | 24.06.06 | by Annemarie |

Backstreet Boys to Return to Studio This Summer |
In an interview with andPOP's Sarah Millar, Backstreet Boy Brian Littrell revealed that the boys have been talking about their next album and hope to return the studio as soon as June. "There are tentative plans to be in the studio at the end of June but we're still working on that (and) with material and the direction of the record," Littrell told andPOP. "I've had a few conference calls with everyone talking about the end of June meeting in LA. We do plan to be in the studio probably the majority of July and maybe part of August. We're moving forward together." The Backstreet Boys released "Never Gone" last year, after four years without new material. "The record was recorded amazingly," he said. "We didn't know what to expect coming out with a new album after 13 years (together). But it was just embraced and loved by the fans." Source: andPOP | 06.06.06 | by Annemarie |
