The Jonas Brothers Say Their New Album Is Happiness in a Bottle

The Jonas Brothers are on a mission to make the world a happier place.

The JoBros discussed their new album, Happiness Begins and their upcoming tour on the red carpet for the 2019 Billboard Music Awards.

“We worked with a lot of really talented writers and producers. In the sessions, we’d walk in, say we’re trying to bottle happiness and bring it to the world,” Nick Jonas told E! News of the group’s new music. “There’s so much negativity out there and if we can provide a little light in people’s eyes, we’re doing our job. That’s the space we’re all in. We’re all happy. Living our best life at the moment with each other as family and connecting again with our extended families. We want to give that to the world.”

Joe Jonas said the band’s new album is also a celebration of their fans.

“For us, you can think of so many bands and artists in your life and you go, ‘Yeah I remember this breakup. I remember this great day for me.’ And I think a lot of these songs might be that for our fans,” Joe added. “So it is just a celebration as well. Being back with these fans and familiar faces, new faces, too. It does feel like it’s going to be the best tour we’ve ever put on.”
