| Album Notes and Credits |
Notes & Personnel Info |  | Audio Mixer: Chris Lord-Alge. |  | On 2008's A LITTLE BIT LONGER, the Jonas Brothers follow their self-titled breakthrough album with another set of lively, tween-friendly pop. Having achieved a level of massive popularity rivaling that of their Disney peer Miley Cyrus (HANNAH MONTANA), Nick, Joe, and Kevin Jonas are clearly energized by their success, resulting in a confident, highly accessible outing. The New Jersey-bred siblings shine brightest on the R&B-tinged "Burnin' Up," the urgent "One Man Show," and the charmingly spare "Lovebug," with the latter track, in particular, showcasing the lads' endearingly wholesome persona. | Producer: John Fields |

| Artist Overview |
| New Jersey's Nick Jonas began appearing in Broadway musicals at the tender age of six, and by the time he formed the mop-topped 'tween-pop band the Jonas Brothers at the age of 13 with his two older siblings Kevin and Joe, he was a seasoned stage performer. A charming explosion of crunchy power chords and sweet vocal harmonies, the Brothers' first album, released on Columbia in 2006, charted high and netted the boys slots on several lucrative tours. They made guest appearances on kid-aimed TV shows like HANNAH MONTANA and released a chart-topping second album in 2007 on Hollywood Records, inciting the ardor of their mostly prepubescent female audience. |

| Professional Reviews |
| Rolling Stone (p.84) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "The boys' fantastic third album is steeped in the fuzzed-up guitars, three-part harmonies and cotton-candy choruses of Big Star and Cheap Trick."Rolling Stone (p.94) - Ranked #40 in Rolling Stone's 50 Best Albums Of 2008 -- "[With] fuzzed-up pop-rock nuggets." Entertainment Weekly (pp.64-65) - "Opener 'BB Good' is the purest bubblegum of the lot, but still feels like bubblegum with some muscle to it..." -- Grade: B Billboard (p.41) - "[T]he Jonases still chomp on their 4/4 pop-rock like a veteran band....Second single 'Love Bug' goes from a campfire strum-along to a Steven Tyler rock wailer to power-punk in less than five minutes." Blender (Magazine) (p.76) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "They love the Beatles and Elvis Costello, and their zippy rock succeeds on good cheer....Think Chemical Romance with fewer issues..." |
