Big Time Rush (BTR is one of the world’s most popular boy bands. The group, comprised of Kendall Schmidt, James Maslow, Logan Henderson and Carlos Pena, began creating music on their Nickelodeon show of the same name.
The show is about the Hollywood misadventures of four hockey players from Minnesota that are selected to form a boy band. The show is currently in its fourth season. BTR has followed suit of many popular Nick shows and created a live music tour.
On July 6, in support of their third album “24/Seven,” the guys make a stop at the Amphitheatre on their national Summer Break Tour with opening acts Olivia Somerlyn and Jackson Guthy.
Compass: What are you up to today?
Logan Henderson: Well, today was not too bad. We had a day off yesterday in Memphis and so we kind of hung out around there. It’s been a slow morning — some of the guys are at the gym and I went skateboarding around the venue a little bit.
Compass: How’s this tour been going?
L.H.: The tour’s been going great so far. This [tonight’s] show will be our seventh, I believe. Everything’s been going really well. It’s been a lot of fun. Our set is much bigger than it was last tour. It’s a new stage set-up and we’re doing a DJ this year — that’s been fun to add in. We’ve been incorporating some different writing and different dances with that. I got to see my family in Dallas a few shows ago and that was really awesome.
