The Jonas Brothers are a Teen-Pop / Rock band group from Wyckoff, New Jersey.

The Jonas Brothers began their careers in 2005 when they were signed to Columbia Records after a group audition. That happened because of youngest brother Nicholas solo career.

The group is composed of three brothers: Joseph, Kevin, and Nicholas Jonas. They originally used the name "Sons of Jonas." They released their debut album It's About Time on August 8, 2006.

The Jonas Brothers have been featured on MTV's TRL, with their music video Mandy reaching the #4 spot. The group has also had its music featured in the Nickelodeon TV movie Zoey 101: Spring Break-Up. They performed "(Yo Ho) A Pirate's Life for Me" for Disneymania 4, and were featured on Cartoon Network's Cartoon Cartoon Fridays program. The trio are all Christians, as said in Nick's song, "Dear God". Their dad was in charge of getting the band's record deals. He also aids them financially.

For the newest season of the Disney Channel Original Series American Dragon Jake Long, the Jonas Brothers have recorded their own version of the show's theme song, which was previously sung by Mavin. The music video can be seen on Disney Channel.

They have been keeping close ties with Disney. It was revealed that their rendition and music video of The Little Mermaid's Poor Unfortunate Souls will be included in the re-release of the animated feature on DVD on October 3, 2006.

As of early September 2006, Amanda Michalka of the Rock/Pop duo Aly & AJ confirmed the rumors about a relationship between herself and Joe Jonas in her official MySpace blog.

The Jonas Brothers will be touring this fall/winter during Radio Disney's annual Jingle Jam Tour.
