Trending on billboard.

The tour kicks off on October 4 in Lexington, Ky., before making its way through cities like Nashville, Tempe and Orlando before wrapping up on October 25 in Las Vegas. While Carter will be honoring his Backstreet Boys pop roots, fans can also expect to see a new side of the singer.

“I’m going to go out with a band, and I play guitar. I’m going to be playing drums throughout the show. So, it has a bit more creative personal expression and is a little bit more organic, I guess you could say,” he says of how his tour differs from a BSB run, before sharing the “surprising” songs he hopes to add into the setlist. “There’s no walls for me when it comes to music,” Carter says with a laugh. “One of the songs I really want to do is Simple Mind’s ‘Don’t You (Forget About Me)’ from The Breakfast Club and another one I want to do is Bon Jovi’s ‘Wanted Dead or Alive.’ I’m actually going to do some rap because I grew up listening to rap music. I’m gonna tear up some rap and do my own East Coast versus West Coast!”

Carter’s Who I Am tour comes at a particularly poignant time in the superstar’s life. In November, his younger brother and fellow pop star Aaron Carter died at age 34 after he drowned in the bathtub at his home in Lancaster, Calif., after inhaling difluoroethane and taking alprazolam. His cause of death was deemed accidental .

“It’s been a very rough year for me and my family and losing my brother is still something that I’m processing,” Nick shares. Following Aaron’s death, Nick and his sister Angel launched a donation fund in their late brother’s memory to benefit On Our Sleeves , which advocates to break the stigma surrounding mental health and provides children’s mental health resources to families and teachers nationwide.

“You try to find ways to cope with the things that are being thrown at you in life. Leaning into anything philanthropic or charitable, it makes it about something bigger than yourself,” Nick says of his past few months. “When my sister and I [launched the donation fund], I think that was the only way we were able to process what we’ve been going through. It’s become about how can we turn what we’ve been feeling into something that can hopefully help somebody else, and then we can learn from it and then somebody else can learn from it.”

“I love my brother. He’s my baby brother and I love him. Losing him, it’s been really hard,” he adds, before taking time to offer some advice for those also going through the loss of a loved one. “You just have to take life as it comes and learn from it and, most importantly, just know that you’re not alone.”

As for now, Nick says that the Who I Am tour has provided a much welcomed beam of light in a particularly tumultuous year. “I’m a musician. I’m an artist. I’m a performer, but I’m also a human first,” he explains. “Music is therapeutic to me and we all find ways to manage the things that we’re going through in life. Getting out there and performing for fans and just being who I am — it’ll help me during this this time.”

“I was born in 1980 and there was a lot of music that influenced me throughout the years to be one of the members of the Backstreet Boys,” Carter told Billboard . “So, I’m going to perform a lot of songs that I love.” 

Carter later explained that he is going to take on many roles throughout the tour. “I’m going to go out with a band, and I play guitar,” he said. “I’m going to be playing drums throughout the show. So, it has a bit more creative personal expression and is a little bit more organic, I guess you could say.

“There’s no walls for me when it comes to music,” Carter continued. “One of the songs I really want to do is Simple Mind’s ‘Don’t You (Forget About Me)’ from  The Breakfast Club  and another one I want to do is Bon Jovi’s ‘Wanted Dead or Alive.’ I’m actually going to do some rap because I grew up listening to rap music. I’m gonna tear up some rap and do my own East Coast versus West Coast!”

Carter has faced tragedy recently with the passing of his brother, Aaron Carter, who drowned in his bathtub last year at the age of 34. “It’s been a very rough year for me and my family and losing my brother is still something that I’m processing… I love my brother. He’s my baby brother and I love him. Losing him, it’s been really hard. You just have to take life as it comes and learn from it and, most importantly, just know that you’re not alone.”

Carter also addressed the serious allegations held against him by former Dream singer Melissa Schuman. Schuman filed a sexual abuse lawsuit against Carter earlier this year. In regard to the legal situation. “I’m a really strong believer in the legal system,” he said. “I’m confident that justice will be served in the end, and I actually look forward to speaking about it more when it’s all over.”

Tickets for Carter’s upcoming tour will be on sale starting July 21 . A complete set of dates are below:

Oct. 4 – Singletary Center for the Arts – Lexington, KY Oct. 5 – The Family Arena – St. Charles, MO Oct. 7 – Schermerhorn Symphony Center – Nashville, TN Oct. 8 – The Classic Center Theatre – Athens, GA Oct. 9 – Harbison Theatre – Irmo, SC Oct. 11 – Shaftman Performance Hall Jefferson Center – Roanoke, VA Oct. 13 – Wilson Center – Wilmington, NC Oct. 15 – Walt Disney Theater at Dr. Phillips Center – Orlando, FL Oct. 17 – Pompano Beach Amphitheater – Pompano Beach, FL Oct. 19 – Curtis M.

Nick Carter 's looking for aspiring musicians to serve as his opening act on a nationwide tour ... and the first honor goes to a guy who served him coffee.

The Backstreet Boys singer just started the U.S. leg of his "Who I Am" world tour and he needed an opener for Tuesday's show in Cleveland, OH ... and he found his man at a local restaurant.

Nick was grabbing coffee before the show when he started talking to his server, Jordan Tellez ... and when the dude showed him his music on Spotify, Nick asked him to join him at his show.

TMZ obtained video of Nick introducing Jordan to the crowd at his Cleveland concert ... and Tellez took the opportunity and ran with it ... as you see in the clip.

Nick's running a social media competition that's his little version of "American Idol" ... and Jordan's setting the bar here.

For his part, Jordan says the whole experience with Nick was "unreal" ... and it will be interesting to see who else Nick discovers in North America.
