A Christian boy band (or Christian boyband, British English) is a type of Christian pop group featuring between three and six young Christian male singers, who are usually dancers. In addition to pop music, boy bands also sing R&B songs and sometimes hip-hop songs as well. They can evolve out of church choral or gospel music groups, but are often put together by managers or producers who audition the groups for appearance, dancing, and singing ability (often in that order), and often seem to be prefabricated. Boy bands are similar in concept to girl groups. However, even though they are "bands," they rarely play instruments, and the acts are basically "vocal harmony groups." Due to this and the fact that the acts are aimed at a "teenybopper" or "tween" audience, the term has negative connotations in the rock press.
