A lot of people think the path to success is a straight line, but it's not. It has got many turns and curves, and you just got to go with the ebbs and flows of it all.
Kevin Jonas
We are not a boy band in the traditional sense. We don't dance or have synchronized moves. We are a pop-rock band.
We Skype all the time - me and my brothers, and especially me and Dani. Anytime we're apart from the person we're with, we're always trying to be in touch and call.
We're guys that like to make fun music, music that people like. And I think, for us, it's just important to always keep your mind in the right place and always keep your heart in the place of making music that you love.
People seriously ask us all the time, 'Are you guys really brothers?'
I want healthy children.
Our shows are just like that. The screaming is constant, nonstop, and there's not one minute of silence during the show. It's pretty intense.
You forget everything that happened with the first one. Like, at first, I was like, 'How do I swaddle a baby again? Can I hold her like this?' It's like your brain is kind of melting. When you're in the hospital, you're like, 'They really shouldn't let us go home yet.'
For us, our musical journey has just been a progression. We're not trying to grow up too fast or anything, and I'm saying that even coming from being married. For us, we're growing up with our audience.
I don't know how many times I literally hear this. It's the worst pun in the world from some idiotic frat guy. It's like, 'You must be 'Jealous' of Nick!' Constantly! It's like, why? He's doing his thing. I'm doing mine! He's happy. I'm happy.
When we first started in '04 or '05, that's when social media started to become a way to release music and connect with fans - and our fans were kind of at the forefront of that.
We're growing and learning together, and it is important for us to stay true to the family that we are.
No one is above temptation. No one is above life in general.
Nick is an amazing musician. He's really focused.
The songwriting did come naturally; it really did. Like Joe said, the first song we ever wrote together was the song that got us signed, you know, so it was either luck, fate, or something in between.
I carry cards because I don't like cash.
You have to connect with a song, and when you write it, that connection is already there. It's your baby; your passion is in that song.
The model of Yood is 'taking search out of search.'
My bag explodes with clothes all over my hotel room floor every day.
I'm actually a big 'Duck Dynasty' fan.
It's not your responsibility to comment on parenting for others. I would hate if someone did that to me.
When you can take away the ego, you learn a lot about yourself and the world around you.
I've always, like, wanted two kids that were both girls, and my wife was like, 'Why?' I'm like, 'Because I've been around boy so much my entire life that I want to be surrounded by, you know, girls.'
I've always had a passion for the tech industry, and I like to help build interesting products.
No matter how much you know, you can always learn more and be a good listener.
This crazy world that looks like a lot of fun is also really stressful and crazy at times.
We chose to be a family, not a band.
I miss touring. I miss seeing people on the road. I miss that adrenaline rush; there's nothing like it.
It's neat to hear a new generation of musicians come up.
When you go out on stage and you greet the crowd, there's nothing like it.
I'm a huge coffee drinker.
We try to live as normal a life as we can, but it can be overwhelming at times.
Being discovered by an audience is an incredibly difficult thing.
Dani's family are great, and I'm really lucky to have them as in-laws. But it's definitely not all plain sailing. They are such big characters who aren't scared to speak their mind, and we have different points of view at times, so we have to work through that.
I think there's, you know, somewhere inside of us there's that - that fear of one day waking up and, you know, the fans - the fans move on to the next band or something.
Really, each part, each one of us, I think, has our role, but I think for Joe, he really stands out and has that Mick Jagger-esque feel to him.
Camp is so universal. It buys that sense of togetherness. You have camp friends that you only see at camp and couldn't see an entire year.
After the Jonas Brothers, I was like, 'What is next?'
I haven't seen 'Magic Mike' yet, and neither has Dani. Or maybe she has seen it, and I just don't know!
A lot of people don't post about their kids or do anything. With us, we are so proud and so blessed to have our children, and we also know how happy we are, that I feel like we would love to share it. We are not trying to exploit anything in any way; honestly, I am just proud of my kids and just happy to have them.
We're not one of those groups who have one song on the radio and, boom, they're an instant success. We worked hard from day one and didn't get a lot of respect, possibly because of the way we were marketed.
It was humbling to see my brothers blowing up in music while I wasn't in the public eye, but it was also gratifying, because I'm doing what I love, and the self-esteem you get from that is so much better.
Being in a band is very much like a startup. You start in a garage. You hope to get interest from investors, like a major record label.
Thanksgiving is a big one for our family.
As every parent knows, not every moment is going to be super exciting.
I decided that it's going to be both Joe and Nick. Dani has an older and a younger sister, so it works out really well. I can have two best men, and she can have two maids of honor.
It would be incredible to be a dad and raise a family.
Any time you get to see Paul McCartney, it is pretty special.
Surround yourself with people who will make you better, and learn to listen.
There are guitars everywhere around all of our houses. Pianos. Guitars. It's kind of just in our blood. It's in our nature.
