About this album
Where they were
Released in early 2010, 'Jonas L.A.' marked the Jonas Brothers' transition from their earlier teen-pop roots into a more mature sound, coinciding with their successful Disney Channel series. This album followed their commercially successful 'Lines, Vines and Trying Times' (2009) and aimed to capture the essence of Los Angeles as a backdrop for their evolving musical identity.
Why it matters
The album served as a soundtrack to the Disney Channel series 'JONAS', enhancing the brothers' brand beyond music into television. Its lead single, 'L.A. Baby (Where Dreams Are Made of)', contributed to the show's popularity, aligning with the trends of youth-oriented pop culture during that era.
Essential tracks
