Joe Jonas Sends Message to Jonas Brothers Fans in DNCE 'Nylon' Feature

The members of DNCE jump for joy in a new feature for Nylon magazine.

Joe Jonas, JinJoo Lee, Cole Whittle and Jack Lawless told the mag the real meaning behind their name and sent a message to the Jonas Brothers fans of the past.

JinJoo on the meaning of the band’s name: “DNCE is dance without an A, which is not a perfect word, but you also don’t have to be a perfect dancer to dance. Life is never perfect, but you can still enjoy it.”

Joe on his music career shift: “For a lot of musicians that walk into a new band, it’s a challenge. You want to create something that fans of your past can enjoy, but you have to be selfish and say this is music for me and I want to have freedom as an artist. But I’m happy if someone wants to listen to my new music who used to listen to the Jonas Brothers. Come along for the ride.”
