The Jonas Brothers are an American pop-rock band. Formed in 2005, they gained popularity from their appearances on the Disney Channel television network. They consist of three brothers: Kevin Jonas, Joe Jonas, and Nick Jonas.
They starred in the 2008 Disney Channel Original Movie Camp Rock and its 2010 sequel, Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam. They also starred in their own Disney Channel series Jonas, which was rebranded as Jonas L.A. for its second season.
The band have released five albums: It’s About Time (2006), Jonas Brothers (2007), A Little Bit Longer (2008), Lines, Vines and Trying Times (2009), and Happiness Begins (2019).
In 2008, the group was nominated for the Best New Artist award at the 51st Grammy Awards and won the award for Breakthrough Artist at the American Music Awards.
Six years following their split, the group reunited with the release of “Sucker” on March 1, 2019. The song became the 34th song in history to debut at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and became the Jonas Brothers’ first number-one single on the chart.
Who is the forgotten Jonas brother?
Frankie is the youngest brother of the Jonas family — with the others being Kevin, Joe, and Nick Jonas.
As many of you know, the three older brothers formed a boy group called the Jonas Brothers, who had hits including “Year 3000”, “Love Bug”, and “S.O.S”.
The brothers decided to step away from music for a few years, but recently reunited and started making music again. Now, they have additional hits on the radio today including “Sucker” and “What a Man Gotta Do”.
But there is one brother who is much younger than Nick, Joe, and Kevin Jonas who isn’t in the spotlight nearly as often: Frankie Jonas. Now, Frankie is opening up about his childhood, his struggles, and what it was really like having Nick, Joe, and Kevin as brothers.
Now, in a new interview with Bustle, 20-year-old Frankie is opening up about his mental health, how he “always hated” the nickname “Bonus Jonas”, and how he felt his future “slowly died” due to the success of the Jonas Brothers.
