Background

edit

In January 2015, Carter let fans know he was working on another solo album that would be titled All American.[1] On September 22, 2015, he released the lead single from the album, "I Will Wait" on Vevo, which he said was inspired by Ed Sheeran's songwriting.[2][3] Carter also has a track featuring Canadian singer Avril Lavigne, titled "Get Over Me".[4] All American was released on November 25, 2015, a day after the Dancing with the Stars finale, where he was one of the four finalists.[5]

Musical style

edit

The musical style of the album combines pop, rock and pop punk, and features some rock music instruments such as drum and rock guitar. The song "Cherry Pie" has the throwback type feel like that of Mark Ronson. Some songs have a guitar sound of pop punk music, such as "19 in 99", "Tijuana", "All American" and "Left for Dead". The songs "Get Over Me", "California", "Second Wind", "Sweet" and "In Over My Head" have more of a dance-pop and teen pop sound. "I Will Wait" is an emotional ballad inspired by Ed Sheeran, with a clear acoustic guitar sound.

I'm very inspired by rock and pop music, and have those in me, and have done albums like that in the past, so it's going to have that. But it also has some rhythm, it has some soul for sure. I feel like I'm definitely coming into my own as an artist. But it just touches on all sorts of different styles and feels, so when you listen to the album from top to bottom, you know it's taking you on a ride. Like a musical. Like a movie, or something.[6]

Singles

edit

"I Will Wait" is the first single of the album, released on September 12, 2015, on iTunes, and September 22 on Vevo. The song climbed to No. 1 on the Billboard Trending 140 Chart.[3] On September 24, Carter performed the song on the finale of Dancing with the Stars.

On February 3, 2016, "Nothing's Gonna Change My Love for You" was released only in Japan, set as the promotional single and bonus track of the All American Japanese standard edition. Carter duets with Japanese singer Nissy on this song, which was originally recorded by American musician George Benson, with lyrics by Michael Masser and Gerry Goffin. The song entered the Billboard Japan Hot 100 at No. 86.[7] However, it debuted at No. 12 on the Japanese iTunes Weekly Chart.[citation needed]

"19 in 99" was released as the second official international single of the album. Its music video was released on February 5, 2016 on Vevo and YouTube, and was directed by Kevin Estrada. Bandmate AJ McLean makes a cameo appearance in the video.
