“The story behind the song isn’t very complicated,” the band says of the new single. “To put it simply, we can’t get enough. Can’t get enough of making new music and can’t get enough of performing for everyone. We are influenced by many different artists, styles, and decades and “Can’t Get Enough” is a nod to the disco era. We are so excited for everyone to hear the song and everything else we’ve been working on. The Can’t Get Enough Tour is going to be a wild ride. Since our first shows back in 2021, we decided this isn’t a reunion. This is a comeback. The Can’t Get Enough Tour is going to be bigger than ever. We are pushing ourselves to make the best show possible so that every night is truly special. This is going to be a tour you do not want to miss.”
Big Time Rush will hit the road for the Can’t Get Enough Tour June 22nd along with special guests, openers Jax and Max. Multi-platinum pop star Max has amassed more than 1.5 billion streams and has released a number of multi-platinum songs. Singer-songwriter and TikTok star Jax, who won iHeartRadio’s TikTok Songwriter of the year award in 2022, has made waves with her body-positive anthem “Victoria’s Secret” which debuted on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart.
Much like the BTR boys, Max is also a former Nickelodeon star, featuring in Nick's musical-comedy series How to Rock.
The summer tour follows Big Time Rush’s massive, sold-out 2022 Forever Tour which saw the band play 45 shows across North America to rave reviews including a sold-out show at New York City’s iconic Madison Square Garden and selling over 300,000 tickets.
Big Time Rush became an overnight sensation in 2009 from the launch of the Nickelodeon television series Big Time Rush. The show was a huge success and catapulted the group into real-life stardom, as they went on to release 3 studio albums and performed across the globe, including five tours from 2011 to 2014. In June 2020, the band held a surprise virtual reunion to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of their smash hit “Worldwide,” resulting in mass hysteria amongst their fans and in the media. In March 2021, all four seasons of Nickelodeon’s Big Time Rush were added to Netflix and the band went viral once again, increasing fan demand for an official reunion. Soon after, the band announced they would come together for two special live shows in New York and Chicago, both of which sold-out in a matter of minutes, blowing expectations out of the water and proving the power of the band’s devoted fandom. 2022 saw their North American Forever Tour sell out and the band release hit singles “Honey,” “Fall” and “Not Giving You Up.” 2023 promises to be another massive year for the band and fans can expect more news from Big Time Rush soon.

ABOUT BIG TIME RUSH:
Big Time Rush became an overnight sensation in November 2009 when the scripted TV show of the same name launched on Nickelodeon. The show focused on the Hollywood adventures of four hockey players from Minnesota after they were selected to form a boy band. The show became a huge success and later, Carlos, Kendall, James, and Logan came to life as a band off the screen releasing three full length albums and performing across the globe. As the show concluded in July 2013 and after four years of recording music and touring as a band, they went their separate ways but remained close friends through the years.
After 7 years, in an effort to bring joy to their fans during quarantine around the world, the members of Big Time Rush decided to appear together as a group to send a message of love and togetherness. This was soon followed by a socially distant performance of an acoustic version of their smash hit, “Worldwide”. These appearances resulted in hysteria amongst their fans and in the media, followed by BTR receiving 10+ million streams in 2020 alone. Four seasons of the TV show were added to Netflix in March 2021 and have appeared in the Netflix “Top 10” trending titles.
The band finished off 2021 with a performance at iHeartRadio Jingle Ball in Philadelphia as well as 2 sold out shows in Chicago and NYC, capping it off with the release of their first single in 8 years, “Call It Like I See It”.
The power group kicked off 2022 stronger than ever with the launch of their wildly successful, sold-out Forever Tour, as well as all new music, including hit singles “Honey,” “Fall,” and “Not Giving You Up.” The Forever Tour sold over 300,000 tickets across North America with numerous sell outs including sold-out shows in Chicago, at New York City’s legendary Madison Square Garden and on all dates on their Mexico Tour and will conclude in early 2023 in South America with shows in Argentina, Brazil, Colombia and Chile.
In addition to a massive sold-out tour, 2022 also included live performances at the Latin Kids' Choice Awards, iHeart Music Festival, Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and the premiere of their first pay-per-view event, The City Is Ours, a concert film capturing the band’s sold-out show at Madison Square Garden.

‘Star Trek’ Franchise Gets Its First Female Composer as Nami Melumad Visits ‘Strange New Worlds’
“Star Trek” has always been known for its progressive casting on screen. But over seven live-action series and 13 movies dating back more than half a century, the science-fiction franchise has never had a woman composer – until now.
Nami Melumad, who has been scoring the animated “Star Trek: Prodigy,” has stepped up a notch and is scoring weekly episodes of “Strange New Worlds,” the new Paramount Plus series that chronicles the voyages of the pre-Captain Kirk Enterprise.
“It’s been a very busy few months,” says the Israeli-born composer, who has been writing an average of 45 minutes of music per episode of “Strange New Worlds” and is now on her 14th episode of “Prodigy” for Nickelodeon.
Melumad’s “Star Trek” adventures actually began on “Short Treks,” the 10-part series of shorts exploring various aspects of the “Trek” universe. She scored “Q&A,” the 2019 episode that featured Anson Mount as Christopher Pike, Rebecca Romijn as Number One and Ethan Peck as Spock, who now head the cast of “Strange New Worlds.”
That was on the recommendation of composer Michael Giacchino, who scored the three films in the big-screen “Star Trek” reboot and has also written the theme for “Prodigy.” Giacchino and Melumad had collaborated on the 2018 feature “American Pickle” and she considers the Oscar-winning composer a mentor.
“When I heard the first pass of Nami’s score for a ‘Short Trek’ we did, It was clear even in the rawness of the material that she was an extraordinary talent,” says executive producer Alex Kurtzman. “She had the ‘remember what it was like when you were a kid’ musical joy of Michael Giacchino and John Williams, while composing something wholly original that was unique to her own, nimble style.”
“Strange New Worlds,” like the other live-action “Trek” shows (“Discovery,” “Picard”), has a theme by Jeff Russo, but the weekly scores are all Melumad’s work.
“[The producers] have done such a great job in taking the style of the ’60s, with production design, costume design, how the actors look,” she says. “Everything feels old but new, and I wanted the score to match that feel. I went back to a more active style, a more dynamic style, for the music.”
She has an orchestra of 36 or 37 players, approximately the same as the “Next Generation,” “Deep Space Nine” and “Voyager” composers had in the 1980s and ’90s, but actually larger than the 29 musicians composer Alexander Courage conducted for the first appearance of Pike (then played by Jeffrey Hunter) in the original “Star Trek” pilot of 1965.
Melumad has written themes for most of the major characters, including Pike, Spock, Number One, young cadet Uhura and medical officer M’Benga – plus a love theme for Spock and his Vulcan fiancee T’Pring. “As much as I love [the original “Trek”] composers, we’re telling a new story, bringing new characters, that invite new opportunities and new sounds,” she says.
Adds Kurtzman: “She has a storytelling ability that truly great composers understand, which is to say that she knows intuitively when to play the text of a scene and when to do the opposite and let the music say all the things the characters aren’t saying. On ‘Star Trek: Prodigy,’ we asked her to give a children’s animation show a score worthy of a live-action feature, and that’s exactly what she did.”
The composer, who grew up in a suburb of Tel Aviv in the 1990s, “knew what ‘Star Trek’ was, but nobody in my family watched it,” she recalls. Rather, she discovered the music of “Star Trek” before she became a fan of the series: the themes by Jerry Goldsmith and James Horner for the first “Trek” movies, the Gerald Fried and Fred Steiner music for the original series, and the music by Dennis McCarthy and others for “Next Generation” and subsequent shows.
“I’m joining a line of amazing, iconic composers,” she says. “I want to do well by them and serve the franchise. We get to explore our humanity through exploring the universe.” She hints that familiar themes from the original series may turn up in new contexts later this season.
Melumad has worked consistently since graduating in 2015 from USC’s film-scoring program, including three seasons of “Absentia” on Amazon Prime, the video game “Medal of Honor: Above and Beyond,” the Disney animated short “Far From the Tree” and the Oscar-winning documentary “Colette” in 2020.
As for her status as “Trek’s” first woman composer, she concedes, “I have to do an amazing job so that people will see that female composers are great, and should be given more opportunities.” But, she adds, “I think it shouldn’t be a matter of gender or race; it should be about talent.”
“It’s really fun,” Melumad says of “Strange New Worlds.” “I get to be on the Enterprise with the crew that I love, work with people I love on a show that I admire, and tell stories that are actually meaningful. I’m really proud to be a part of it.”
