Sept. 30, 2019 | Bobby Carter -- The line of NPR staffers waiting to see the Jonas Brothers' Tiny Desk concert began forming four hours before the scheduled performance. Well aware of the actual start time, my colleagues sat patiently on the floor, working on their laptops with coffee in hand. By the time Kevin, Joe and Nick Jonas entered the building to chat with Michel Martin - and eventually make their way up to the Tiny Desk - the building was buzzing.
As the trio approached the desk, they were immediately drawn to the knickknacks and toy instruments scattered throughout the area. They ended up working them into their performance, adding a little childlike flair to three selections from their latest album, Happiness Begins, including "Only Human" and a jazzy rework of "Sucker."
It turns out the date of the performance was also Joe's birthday, so our video producer (and proud Joe-Bro fan), Morgan Noelle Smith brought a cake, and the large crowd serenaded him with "Happy Birthday."
The Jonas Brothers announced their reunion in February after a six-year hiatus and soon dropped a new single, "Sucker," which debuted at number one of the Billboard Hot 100. It was the group's first number one. During their time apart, Kevin focused on family, Nick went solo and Joe formed the band DNCE. But watching their joyful and often playful set at the Tiny Desk, it was clear all the chemistry remains alive and well.
SET LIST
"Sucker"
"I Believe"
"Only Human"

They got super creative the way they broke these songs down to these stripped down versions. They easily could have just done a simple acoustic version but they added in a lot more to it and changed the vibe of the songs really.

There are some really talented musicians that tour with them, I don’t know if they all are the guitarist on the far right is I believe, he looked familiar as I just saw them live a few days ago. And then of course Jack, the drummer who is crazy good and has been with them since the beginning!

Not a huge fan of the way Nick sings 🤷🏻♀️ he looks like he’s in pain even when it comes to the easy notes. And he doesn’t open his mouth up when singing certain notes that it makes all the words sound very closed up/narrow. Not sure how to explain it in musical terms~ I’m more a fan of Joe’s voice. Oh well~ everyone has different tastes/preferences~

This is why I love NPR’s Tiny Desk! It allows artists to showcase their work in a completely different way. I was never a fan of The Jonas Brothers but I actually enjoyed this and shared it on my social.
I really enjoy seeing this imperfect version of them. It feels like we don’t get to see them without all the frills often enough. They really are very talented on their own and people don’t get to see that. They make mistakes and somehow that makes it better and more real.

Well, I was a huge fan of the Jonas Brothers when I was younger. But I think I underestimated their talent. When Joe went higher with his voice in the chorus I was so surprised.
I saw the title and was like “...uh what?”. Surprised me with this concert for sure!
