Hold On: The Jonas Brothers are Back
The Jonas Brothers released their new song, “Sucker,” on March 1. This is the band’s first song in six years.

If you were born anywhere between 1998-2004, maybe even in the year 3000, you would recognize the names Kevin, Nick and Joe Jonas. And if you’re anything like me, those three names bring back a lot of memories of Disney Channel shows, J-14 posters and a few questionable outfit choices.
The Jonas Brothers were a staple in a lot of Generation-Z kids’ lives, but those names have not come up in the last 10 or 12 years. I mean, no shame if you jam out to “Burnin’ Up” every now and then, I do the same, but new Jonas Brothers music? That was a thing of the past – until midnight March 1.
The build-up to the drop of their new single was seemingly out of thin air, with Us Weekly reporting on the reunion only a few days before the expected release date. However, the hype was well-deserved. I even had to check my calendar to make sure this wasn’t some sort of April Fools trick; that is how excited I was, along with millions of other 2000s kids.
The new song, “Sucker,” features a few elements of classic Jonas Brothers songs, while maintaining a modern rhythm and vocals. The song also mixes the styles of Nick and Joe, the high pitched vocals and dance-pop beats of each solo artist.
My personal favorite aspect of the song is the fast-paced claps in the background of every bridge. It is a nice touch, and this element adds a lot of rhythm and bass and allows for you to really dance and enjoy the song, which is what I expected from my favorite brother trio.
The song, however, was not the only thing the Jonas Brothers blessed us with. The group also released a brand-new music video featuring their significant others: Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Danielle Jonas and Sophie Turner. Throughout the lavish production, the women are showcased in a palace with fancy dinners, exquisite outfits and animals. The high-energy music video is not necessarily new for the Jonas Brothers, with former videos for “Burnin’ Up” and “Year 3000” warranting the same kind of excitement, but the production value and special guests helped to differentiate the new from the old in an electrifying way.
Overall, “Sucker” was a blast from the past as well as a look into the Jonas Brothers’ future. The group has been traveling around the world promoting the album and along the way, have discussed their upcoming studio album. Be on the lookout for new music; while the Jonas Brothers haven’t set a date for the album’s release, I would expect nothing less than a surprise drop.

Yearbook won 43, newspaper won 14 and broadcast took home nine. “I think [the ILPC awards] are a great way to give the kids some acknowledgement for all of their hard work,” newspaper and yearbook adviser Paige Hert said. “They typically spend the year covering everyone else’s big moments, so it’s really cool for them to be celebrated so many times and in so many different ways.”](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/edited-ILPC.jpg)

"I feel like it’s not really appreciated in America as much, but [tennis] is a really competitive and mentally challenging sport,” Nguyen said. “I’m really level-headed and can keep my cool during a match, and that helps me play a bit better under pressure.” Photo by Kyra Cox](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/hasun.jpg)

Lucas broke the school’s 18-year-old record for the 500 freestyle at regionals and again at state with a time of 4:58.63. “I’d had my eye on that 500 record since my freshman year, so I was really excited to see if I could get it at regionals or districts,” Lucas said. “ State is always a really fun experience and medaling for the first time was really great. It was a very very tight race, [so] I was a bit surprised [that I medaled]. [There were] a lot of fast girls at the meet in general, [and] it was like a dogfight back and forth, back and forth.” Photo by Kaydence Wilkinson](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Kaydence-2.7-23-edit-2.jpg)
