Joey McIntyre will release a seven-song EP, Here We Go Again, on Nov. 17 via digital retailers. The set includes the title track first single and other collaborations with producer-writers Brent Paschke, Drew Ryan Scott and Gabe Lopez.

He says, "Every two or three years I just get itchy and I want to make a new record, and being out on the road and performing so much only encouraged me more. It was quite an experience the last couple years with the New Kids; it definitely inspired me to write some stuff. And I think that after being part of a group, you kind of want to do your own thing again."

McIntyre, who's released four previous solo albums, says he started work on Here We Go Again two days after New Kids on the Block finished their world tour on July 19, and the first session produced the song 'Out of Nothing at All'. After that, McIntyre says, "we were psyched" and proceeded with the rest of the disc.

"I like the idea of doing the EP, seven or eight songs," he explains. "After that it becomes a prolonged project, usually. It's the album process. It could go another six months. This sort of shot out of the cannon, and out of that came these seven songs."
