Biography:
One-third of the sibling teen pop group Jonas Brothers, vocalist Nicholas Jonas was the first brother to make his mark on-stage. Growing up in New Jersey, Nicholas and his brothers were encouraged to play music by their musician parents. However, around age six, Nicholas was discovered by a talent agency and began performing on Broadway appearing in such musicals as +Les Miserables, +Annie Get Your Gun and others. By age 12, on the merits of his composition &"Joy to the World (A Christmas Prayer)" which was featured on the 2002 charity album Broadway's Greatest Gifts: Carols for a Cure, Vol. 4, Nicholas had scored a record deal with INO and Columbia. A 2004 eponymous solo album with a Christian gospel bent followed. Though the album didn't receive much attention, it did feature some songs written and performed by all the Jonas Brothers. Executives at Columbia were so taken with the band as a group that they signed the Jonas Brothers to a record deal. The band's full-length debut, It's About Time, was released in August 2006. Jonas Brothers followed in 2007. Matt Collar, All Music Guide
