It’s rare to watch a music group grow up and not fall apart but instead grow into their own. Every once in a while, though, you’re pleasantly surprised when a group manages to go the distance. This is exactly what’s happened with the Jonas Brothers, a group that started as a Disney Channel-branded band but has since grown into its own as its teenage members grew into fully-fledged adults in their own right. Good on ya, boys!

Yes, They’re Really Brothers

Kevin, Joe, and Nick Jonas, all born between the late 1980s and early 1990s, were just three happy-go-lucky boys from Jersey that liked to play music together. That is until they began attracting the notice of agents, something that led them to become household names for anyone with a cable subscription. Starting in 2005, they began touring, showing up at major events at places like the White House, and were pretty much all over the Disney Channel in terms of shows. They did the teen heartthrob thing up until about 2011, when they went their separate ways to pursue solo careers, crushing the hearts of teenage girls everywhere. They did try getting together once more in 2013 but ultimately, split up again in what looked like for good.

Back in the Saddle

Fast-forward a few years, and the boys have patched things up considerably. Blood is thicker than water after all, and you can’t keep a good band of brothers down. In 2019 the JoBros were back together, this time for good, and that’s excellent news for anyone who grew up listening to their music and felt cheated when it came to missing them in concert.
