As the third #1 album of their career and first release since 2009, this
#1 bow represents a landmark moment for the group and pop at large as
they retain the place at the top of the charts they claimed a decade
ago. Jonas Brothers notably achieve the biggest sales week of 2019 for an album. Not to mention, Happiness Begins generated a greater total consumption of more than the rest of the Billboard 200’s Top 10 combined!
A global success, the album also landed at #1 in Canada, with additional
career high debuts in countries including UK, Australia, Germany and
the Netherlands and more.
These achievements solidify the Jonas Brothers return as the biggest pop event of 2019.
“Sucker” debuted at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, marking the first #1 for the band and the first #1 debut from a group this century. Recently ranked #1 on Billboard’s
critic's picks list of the “50 Best Songs of 2019,” it has become a
song of the summer anthem. At radio, the multiplatinum Billboard Hot
100 #1 smash “Sucker” continues to dominate, rapidly ascending to #1 on
the Billboard Pop Songs chart where it led for eight weeks- the most for
any song this year and longest running #1 since Ed Sheeran’s “Shape Of
You” in 2017. The song also recaptured the #1 spot on Billboard's Adult Pop Songs chart, as the band’s follow up single “Cool” approaches the Top 10 on Pop Songs.
The historic week kicked off with the release of the band’s highly anticipated documentary Chasing Happiness—available now exclusively via Amazon Prime Video. In
support of the release, the band made several high-profile media
appearances throughout the campaign, including a surprise launch on The Late Late Show With James Corden, a performance on the 2019 Billboard Music Awards, Saturday Night Live, the season finale of The Voice, MTV’s TRL and more. In addition, they graced the covers of Billboard, Paper Magazine and Harper’s Bazaar’s first ever Men’s Bazaar cover. Most recently, they performed on the Today Show Summer Concert Series- which saw record breaking crowds- and The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, where the band debuted their next single “Only Human.” Up next, the band will appear on NBC’s new hit show Songland, which stars GRAMMY® Award-winning songwriter, producer, and lead singer of the multi-platinum band OneRepublic, Ryan Tedder, who was a producer on the album.

After selling out multiple shows, the Happiness Begins Tour will kick off August 7th in Miami, FL with special guests Bebe Rexha and Jordan McGraw. The band will then release their upcoming memoir Blood, which is available for pre-order HERE now and will be released in November 2019.
