Jonas Brothers reunite, debut first new music in six years

The Jonas Brothers are back.

The trio announced Thursday that they have officially reunited and will debut a new single, “Sucker,� at midnight EST on Friday. Released via Republic Records, the track is the band’s first new music in six years.

Kevin, Joe and Nick Jonas announced the news with a teaser for “The Late Late Show with James Corden.� The video showed the group partaking in the popular “Carpool Karaoke� segment and singing along to a few bars of the new song.

“It’s nice to be able to finally tell somebody — we’ve kept this a secret now for seven or eight months,� said Nick in the clip. “This is basically our first performance back. We’ve gotta dust off the cobwebs.�

The Jonas Brothers will take over CBS’ “The Late Late Show� from Monday through March 7 on CBS with an exclusive interview on their reunion, as well as some sketches, games and the premiere performance of their new song.

“Sucker� is the band’s first new release since 2013’s LP “Live� and singles “First Time� and “Pom Poms.� The Jonas’ last studio album was 2009’s “Lines, Vines and Trying Times.�

The group split in October 2013, two days before a scheduled tour, due to what a spokesperson cited as a “deep rift in the band� and “big disagreement over their music direction.� Each member has since pursued solo careers, and Joe formed the group DNCE.
