The Jonas Brothers will finally release their debut studio album ‘It’s About Time’ on August 8th for the list price of $12.98 - complete with new tracks not previously made available.

"Music on Red Bull!" Without hesitating, that's how 17-year-old Kevin Jonas describes the hyper-adrenalized sounds he's created with his two brothers, 13-year-old Nicholas and 16-year-old Joseph, on the Jonas Brothers' debut album, ‘It's About Time.’

And it's no wonder since the boys' influences include an eclectic mix of artists ranging from the Ramones to the Jackson 5 to the Modern Lovers - all purveyors of tight, catchy anthems.

After recently wrapping up a summer tour with Jesse McCartney, the Backstreet Boys and the Click Five, the Jonas boys got hooked on the rush of bringing a crowd to its feet (and didn't mind signing autographs for the throngs of excited fans waiting for them after each show). One thing is for sure, the Jonas Brothers are all ready to keep the momentum going strong. "We go crazy on stage!" says Kevin. "It's so much fun!"

For ‘It's About Time,’ the brothers had the chance to learn from the best by collaborating with some of the most accomplished writers in the industry including Adam Schlesinger (Fountains of Wayne), Michael Mangini (Joss Stone), Desmond Child (Aerosmith, Bon Jovi), Billy Mann (Jessica Simpson, Destiny's Child) and Steve Greenberg (Joss Stone, Hanson).

The Grammy-winning duo of Greenberg and Mangini, fresh off their success with Joss Stone's two acclaimed albums, produced ‘It's About Time,’ drawing on the Jonas Brothers' unpretentious garage rock sound and affinity for hooky 70's British punk records. 

‘It’s About Time’ is now available for pre-order at Amazon. Visit the music database for more information including a complete track listing. Visit the Jonas Brothers’ website for a sampling of their music and other information on the group.
