Before NSYNC. Before the Backstreet Boys. Long before Justin Bieber and One Direction there was New Kids on the Block, the pioneers of boy bands and the founders of modern pop. These are the guys who started it all, who sang in danced in unison and captured the hearts of teenage girls all over the world. Their peppy music was heavily influenced by the surging hip-hop movement of the times, and it was the New Kids on the Block who championed sampling hip-hop beats and swagger to broadcast their all-male sound.

The members of the New Kids on the Block and their sound are all grown up, yet their music is as fresh and hip as when it ruled the airwaves in the late 1980s and 90s. While fans thought New Kids on the Block were gone forever after a handful on unsuccessful attempts to bring the band back together, New Kids were fooling everybody. They had in fact reunited in 2007 and were secretly toiling away to record a string of new hits on an album that showcased just how deep their talents run. With the release of The Block in 2008, New Kids on the Block put to rest any doubts about their resurgence and if they could still sing, dance and hold an audience rapt the way they did back in the day.

Those guys needed the stage, needed to be in the spotlight to show the world just how talented they are, and now they're back with a fresh sound, fresh look and lots of pent up energy that they're unleashing at every performance.
Their reinterpreted R&B-styled music was the envy of every other band in the early 1990s, but there was just no stopping the New Kids on the Block. For nearly a decade, they ruled the airwaves with an iron fist, firmly ensconced at the top of the charts and winners of countless awards and accolades. Now the New Kids are back on the block and ready to play, ready to show the world they're still king of the boy bands, king of the stage and the kings of harmony.
In 1985, Maurice Starr conducted a citywide talent search in Boston hoping to assemble an adolescent vocal group. Donnie Wahlberg, Jordan Knight, Jon Knight, Danny Wood, and Joe McIntyre were quickly identified as budding stars and asked to form a band, a band that would go on to conquer the music world for years. New Kids on the Block made their enthusiastic debut in 1986 and ever since they've been cultural icons. Then and now, New Kids on the Block are a force of nature onstage, and the opportunity to see them back in action isn't to be missed.
