The Jonas Brothers Chat To ilikemusic
The Jonas Brothers are Kevin, Nick and Joe Jonas. Three brothers from Wyckoff, New Jersey. Their debut album has now sold over 1.2 million copies in the US alone. They have recently released their debut UK single, SOS, which is an upbeat, punchy, pop track. The video was filmed on the old Queen Mary and has already had over 17 million views on YouTube! The boys have been very busy touring to promote their self titled debut. After a number of sold out tours throughout the US they came across the seas to the UK and Europe to support Avril Lavigne. We managed to catch a moment with the lovely Kevin Jonas to chat about making music, staying grounded and his favourite summer tunes.
"I Like Music because… I feel like music is an energy source for us. We live off of it. We breathe it. Every single moment of our life is dedicated to music. Without that I don't think I know what I would be doing with my life. It is a universal language for sure." KEVIN JONAS, THE JONAS BROTHERS
ILM: Hello! How have you been finding the UK so far?
Kevin: We're loving it! It has been unbelievably amazing. We are having such a blast! Everyone has just been so kind and the fans and the shows have just been amazing!
ILM: Have you had much time to look around?
Kevin: You know, on this trip there really hasn't been that much spare time! We have been able to go and see a couple of late night movies, which has been cool.
ILM: SOS is your latest single from your self titled album. Can you describe the vibe of the single?
Kevin: The entire vibe of the album is very positive and very upbeat. It definitely talks about personal experiences that we have gone through. SOS is a song about a broken heart. About going on a date but having a terrible situation happen. For us it was definitely fun to record and play live. It is amazing! You will hear the song and never have any idea that we were talking about walking on broken glass from the way it is produced. It is cool to be able to put a song about heartbreak to the sound of something upbeat and fun.
