Quotes by Kevin Jonas
We didn't tell anyone we had gotten signed, because people can freak out a little. But we started working with writers. I remember that I missed three to four days of school every single week, and people were, like, 'Where are you?', but I couldn't say anything, because we'd talked about keeping it to ourselves.
The songwriting did come naturally; it really did. Like Joe said, the first song we ever wrote together was the song that got us signed, you know, so it was either luck, fate, or something in between.
For my 21st birthday, my now-wife, at the time girlfriend, flew across the country and showed up at my house.
I was on the road with my brothers, traveling around the world, and things would be going well, and what would happen was that I'd be in a city, and there would be no way I'd know where to eat because I would only be there for 12 hours, and we wouldn't know where to go.
Ever since me and the brothers no longer make music together, I stepped aside, and I've been doubling down here in the tech world.
We're not one of those groups who have one song on the radio and, boom, they're an instant success. We worked hard from day one and didn't get a lot of respect, possibly because of the way we were marketed.
I am blessed that I get to do this thing I love to do, and if I wasn't doing this, I'd probably be working as Starbucks. So the fact that I get to travel around on a tour bus all around the country is pretty awesome.
There was something in Nick, becoming the Broadway star that he was and working from the age of 7, being on Broadway for four years, and then doing the music.
