Nick, Joe and Kevin Jonas\u2019 band breakup was announced in 2013, just two days before they were set to tour. The dramatic trailer reveals that pressure to deliver, a drive for success and seemingly instant fame fed into the band\u2019s initial demise.<\/p>\n<p>It traces their New Jersey beginnings, family and church life\u2014their grew up with a pastor father\u2014and how they began to write on their own. \u201cOvernight, we were a band,\u201d Joe says. \u201cWe\u2019re here doing it, living our dream.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, they were dropped from their first label contract with Columbia and their father left his church in the same month, which caused added pressure. They later signed to Disney and their career took off even stronger from there. Meanwhile, Nick was soul searching. \u201cI started to become aware of how much better I wanted to become\u201d and he proposed they call it quits. \u201cThere were moments I thought they\u2019ll never speak to me again,\u201d he says. Joe relays that, \u201cwhat hurt the most is that it came from Nick. He is my best friend.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It took them nearly six years apart and a lot of personal growth, as the trailer suggests, to bring them back together for their reunion, impending album and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/jonas-brothers-happiness-begins-tour-dates-829554\/\">upcoming tour<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019d rather we be brothers and not have our band dictate our relationship,\u201d Joe concludes in the clip.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/chasing-happiness-trailer-jonas-brothers-watch-833771\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">via:: Rolling Stone<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jonas Brothers say their quick rise was also what tore them apart and caused them to reevaluate what success means in their new trailer for the Amazon documentary, Chasing Happiness.
