about jonas brother

The Jonas Brothers grew up in Wyckoff, New Jersey and are the sons of musical parents. They all grew up singing songs as a family and eventually began playing instruments and writing songs together. The youngest brother, Nick, first drew the attention of record company recruiters, but soon it became obvious the 3 Jonas brothers would be best as a group. Columbia Records signed them to a recording contract for their first album.

• Kevin Jonas, born November 5, 1987 - Lead guitar and backing vocals
• Joe Jonas, born August 15, 1989 - Lead vocals and keyboards
• Nick Jonas, born September 16, 1992 - Lead vocals and guitars

The Jonas Brothers [Nick] were 1st discovered in a barber shop, Denise Jonas, their mom, was out getting a hair cut and she took Nick with him. He started singing and a lady heard him, then referred him to a record company and told his mom he had a very beautiful voice. Nick recorded a solo CD, but when the manager found out he had musically talented brothers as well and heard them sing 'Please be mine' together, he decided to include them as a group band instead of a solo artist.

ET has the details on the Jonas Brothers' new album, which includes a Nick Jonas-penned tune about a "confrontational relationship"!The Jonas Brothers first album It's About Time was released in August, 2006. Despite intense publicity, it only reached #91 on the Billboard album chart. However, the album's single "Mandy" did gain some attention. It was written by the brothers about a friend of their family who was taught sign language by the Jonas' mother so Mandy could pursue a career of helping the hearing impaired. The accompanying music video climbed to #3 on MTV's TRL.

The JoBros' highly anticipated fourth CD, Lines, Vines and Trying Times, will be unleashed worldwide June 16, with the album's first single, "Paranoid," arriving on radio and online May 8. The single will become available for digital download on iTunes starting May 12.

The album finds the brotherly trio boldly stretching their musical boundaries -- several of the songs incorporate horns as well as harmonicas and pedal steel guitars. "Paranoid," however, is a guitar-driven dance ditty in the mold of Jonas Brothers gems past.

Another notable tune is "World War III," a "funk metaphor for a confrontational relationship" written by Nick, who calls the song "a personal experience for me" that "deals with the challenge of a girl who keeps attacking you, provoking you, trying to fight you, but all the while she's the only one fighting."

Lines, Vines and Trying Times is the follow up to the No. 1 debut of A Little Bit Longer and the No. 5 debut of Jonas Brothers.
