Editing Howie Dorough (section)

===Solo projects===
Dorough worked as a producer for singer/songwriter [[George Nozuka]] and [[Katelyn Tarver]] as part of his management partnership with former [[3deep]] member [[CJ Huyer]], called HC Entertainment, formed in 2004. Since 2010, he's also been managing a Canadian band [[Neverest]], under Dorough's company, 3 Street Management.

In 2006, he started work on his first solo album. The album would include Spanish/Latin songs as well as American ones. But he eventually changed his mind on the style of the album. Noting that his Spanish was not the best and that he did not want to be something he was not. Around 2010, he started to work on an album that was more pop/r&b style. Dorough's first solo album, ''[[Back to Me (Howie Dorough album)|Back to Me]]'', was eventually released on November 15, 2011. The album featured many songs that Dorough co-wrote himself. The album's first single, "100", was released in the summer of 2011 and received moderate airplay primarily in Canada.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://telebisyon.net/balita/Howie-D-for-Sarah-CD-launch/artikulo/35802/ |title=Howie D. for Sarah CD launch |publisher=Telebisyon.net |date=February 27, 2010 |access-date=February 12, 2012 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120407061301/http://telebisyon.net/balita/Howie-D-for-Sarah-CD-launch/artikulo/35802/ |archive-date=April 7, 2012  }}</ref> Also in November 2011, Dorough joined [[Britney Spears]] for her [[Femme Fatale Tour]] in South America.<ref>{{cite web|title=Britney Spears Recruits A Backstreet Boy For Tour|url=http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1673154/britney-spears-femme-fatale-tour-backstreet-boys.jhtml|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111127003722/http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1673154/britney-spears-femme-fatale-tour-backstreet-boys.jhtml|url-status=dead|archive-date=November 27, 2011|publisher=MTV|access-date=July 12, 2012}}</ref>
