The Jonas Brothers, Nick, Kevin, and Joe, recently added a sentimental twist to their ongoing tour by inviting their father, Kevin Jonas Sr., to join them onstage during a performance in Nashville. This heartwarming moment unfolded as part of the trio’s extensive tour, which commenced in August and is in support of their latest project, “The Album.”
In a touching episode captured by fans and widely shared on social media, Nick, Kevin, and Joe Jonas welcomed their father with open arms. Nick, at 31 years old, introduced his father in a heartfelt manner, acknowledging his father’s significant role in their musical journey. He shared, “He’s somebody who literally had at least 50 percent to do with us being here tonight.” The crowd responded with cheers, and Nick officially introduced their father, saying, “Please welcome Kevin Jonas Sr.”
This wasn’t the first time the family patriarch had shared the stage with the band. He had previously joined them for a rendition of the Eagles’ classic “Desperado” during a concert in Las Vegas last year. The Jonas Brothers’ current tour features an extensive selection of songs from their entire catalog, making it their most ambitious concert to date.
Nick explained, “It’s our most ambitious show we’ve ever put on, in the sense that building out five albums in one night was a challenge that I don’t think we fully understood after we’d already put it on sale.” He continued, “It’s amazing to just go back and look at the road that brought us to this moment now.”
Kevin, aged 35, shared during an interview with TODAY earlier this year that the band has transitioned to a point in their career where they are focused on enjoying their music and having fun.
He explained, “I do think we put a lot of pressure on ourselves when we were younger to get it all right. I think now we just kind of do what we need to do to have fun and continue making music that we love, and I think that’s why it’s working.”
In recognition of their significant contributions to music, the Jonas Brothers were honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame earlier this year.
Kevin Jonas Sr. spoke exclusively to PEOPLE after the event, emphasizing the crucial role their family has played in their successful career. He expressed, “They’re our big support, and we couldn’t be here without them,” highlighting the bond that continues to drive their success.
The Jonas Brothers’ performance with their father not only captivated their fans but also underscored the enduring connection between family and music in their remarkable journey. The band’s ongoing tour promises to be a memorable experience, marked by their passion for music and their appreciation for the family bonds that have shaped their remarkable journey.
