Jonas Brothers

The reunion of New Jersey’s Jonas Brothers delighted millennial fans who fell in love with the pop group as teenagers, via Disney movies like Camp Rock.

Growing up with musical parents, brothers Kevin, Joe and Nick Jonas all pursued artistic interests at a young age. When he was six, youngest brother Nick had already started work on Broadway, appearing in productions like Beauty and the Beast and Les Misérables.

Nick’s work on stage caught the attention of executives at Columbia Records who were keen to get the young singer to record an album. Nick wrote material for the album with his two brothers who eventually were all signed by the label in 2005.

In 2006, Jonas Brothers released their first album, It’s About Time, which climbed to the No.91 spot on the Billboard charts and became a regular play on Radio Disney. Such was their growing popularity with Disney fans, Jonas Brothers were signed by Disney-owned Hollywood Records and saw their fanbase quickly expand.

This was followed by the release of the band’s second album, Jonas Brothers, in 2007 which landed on the Billboard Hot 200 chart the week it was released. Two singles from the album were released at the same time: Hold On and the hit S.O.S. The album was supported by a US tour and saw the brothers making multiple appearances on Disney shows like Hannah Montana. Footage from the tour was also used for the Disney Channel reality series, Jonas Brothers: Living The Dream.
