The Jonas Brothers are the next big thing!
The Jonas Brothers are taking it all in their stride. Although still very much popular in the US and Europe, their upbeat music appeals to the burgeoning pre-teen market. With appearances on Nickelodeon and Disney Channel shows like Zooey 101 and Hannah Montana, the Jonas Brothers have been making waves in the pop music scene.
The band started with the youngest in the group, Nicholas Jonas who had his first role in a Broadway show at age seven. He was originally signed as a single act and released a self-titled album with songs like “When You Look me in the Eye”, “Dear God” and “Time For me to Fly”. At this time, brother Joseph also performed in Broadway’s La Boheme.
The excitement started in 2005 when the began touring with Jesse McCartney, the Backstreet Boys, Kelly Clarkson, the Cheetah Girls and the Click Five. They released their first single “Mandy” the same year and had several of their songs featured in shows like Zooey 101, Disney Mania 4 and American Dragon Jake Long.
The group was dropped by Columbia but signed on with Hollywood records in 2007. They released their album self-titled Jonas Brothers and entered the Billboard Hot 200 in the fifth spot. They continued on making television appearances in Hannah Montana and performed at the Miss Teen USA. In January of this year, the Jonas Brothers jumpstarted their Look Me in The Eyes Tour with a show in Tucson, Arizona.
Their third album is set to be released in August 12, 2008. The 2008 live show has included some of their A Little Bit Longer songs in their tour, as well as opening acts for Avril Lavigne. The Disney Channel has also aired their reality series Jonas Brothers: Living the Dream and has just wrapped up the Disney Original Movie Camp Rock. This year, a massive tour is planned, and they will start touring to promote their latest album.
The boys have been consistently compared to the Hanson Brothers who achieved considerable fame in the 1990s. But unlike Hanson, the Jonas Brothers have more attitude when it comes to their melodies. Their subject revolves around contemporary teen issues such as school, love and hope for the future. Their influences range from the Backstreet Boys to Weird Al Yankovic.
