Joseph Adam “Joe” Jonas is an American singer-songwriter and actor from Wyckoff, New Jersey. He rose to fame from being a member of the Jonas Brothers, a pop-rock band that consisted of himself and his brothers, Nick and Kevin. The brothers also acted in the Camp Rock series and also had their own reality TV series called Jonas.

In 2011, the Jonas Brothers went on hiatus for about a year and a half. During their hiatus, Joe released his debut studio album, Fastlife, on October 11 that year. It was his only solo album and was supported by the singles “See No More” and “Just in Love,” the latter of which received a remix with a feature from rapper Lil Wayne. The brothers went on hiatus again in late 2013, which lasted for about the next six years.

In late 2015, Joe formed DNCE, a dance-rock band that consisted of himself, drummer Jack Lawless, guitarist JinJoo Lee, and bassist and keyboardist Cole Whittle. Its members, except for the latter, had previously toured with the Jonas Brothers together. That same year, DNCE released their debut single, “Cake by the Ocean,” which gained a lot of traction and reached number nine on the Billboard Hot 100. They released their self-titled debut studio album on November 18, 2016.

In early 2019, the Jonas Brothers reunited, which put DNCE on hiatus for about the next three years. The brothers released their comeback single, “Sucker,” which debuted and peaked atop the Billboard Hot 100. Their comeback album was their fifth studio album, Happiness Begins, which was released on June 7 that year and also entered atop the Billboard 200 in the first week.

In early 2022, DNCE reunited, with the exception of Cole Whittle, who did not return to the band as he began working on solo music during their hiatus and continued doing that. The band’s comeback single was their feature on record producer and DJ Kygo’s single, “Dancing Feet,” which was released shortly after their reunion.

Aside from music, Joe has also had a pretty successful acting career, having starred in films such as Zoolander 2 (2016), Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation (2018), and Devotion (2022).
