Howie Dorough talks with me about his album, Which One Am I, getting to have one of his kids be in a music video with him and how fatherhood has made him look at his career in a new way. He also shares how the new album inspired an upcoming family musical theater production, Howie D: Back in the Day. Howie chats with me about being a dad and the values he and his wife look to instill into his kids. Then we finish the interview with the Fatherhood Quick Five.
About Howie Dorough
Born and raised in Orlando, Florida, Howie Dorough’s passion for music and entertaining was evident as early as age. With his little guitar, he would sing around the house for his family. Clearly bitten by the show biz bug, Howie spent his childhood taking dance lessons, singing lessons and acting lessons. He would be performing in school productions, singing in choir, and, as he puts it, “doing anything to break into the business.” He acted in a Nickelodeon TV production. He starred in a commercial for Walt Disney World. Howie even landed roles in movies such as Parenthood and Cop and a Half. Howie studied music at the University of South Florida until he got his big break as a Backstreet Boy at the age of 19. As everyone knows, he has been performing all over the world with BSB ever since.
