Nick Jonas To Perform Live On Periscope Tonight, 4/22!

Nick Jonas is teaming up with Hilton Hotels to perform live exclusively on Twitter’s new live streaming video app, Periscope, tonight at 9:15pm EST!  This marks the first time an entire live concert will be streamed on Periscope.  The show will be broadcast from the Hilton Anatole in Dallas, Texas.

Fans are invited to have a virtual front row seat to this once in a lifetime concert by downloading the Periscope app and following @HiltonHHonors on Twitter.   You know when you can’t make it to a concert, and your best friend Facetimes you during your favorite song?  We imagine this is something like that.  Only you’ll be watching from the best seat in the house.  We’ll definitely be tuning in and here’s hoping for many more Periscope concerts in the future!

We’re still fangirling over Nick’s performance with Dan + Shay at the ACM Awards last weekend.  Watch what happened behind the scenes in rehearsal!

Dan + Shay + Nick (Jonas) Perform Mashup at the ACM Awards

Last night’s 50th annual ACM Awards made the Guinness Book of World Records for being the most attended live awards show ever. Thousands of country stars and fans packed the AT&T Stadium in Dallas, and the crowd’s energy level was off the charts. Performances included everyone from George Straight and Garth Brooks, to newcomers Thomas Rhett, Sam Hunt and Best New Artist Winner Cole Swindell.

One highlight of the night was when Dan + Shay took the stage with Nick Jonas. They performed a special mashup of their hit “Nothin’ Like You,” along with Nick’s solo tracks “Jealous” and “Chains.” When we first heard they were performing together, we weren’t quite sure what to expect with such different sounds. But the mashup, produced by Dan Smyers, perfectly mixed the songs and genres together, with a stellar 3-part harmony. And of course there’s nothing like Shay Mooney’s voice (chills, every time.)

Watch the performance below!

Nick Jonas Releases New Single, “Chains,” Signs With Island Records

We’d be totally lying if we said we weren’t still confused by the Jonas Brothers breakup, but we have moved on to the “acceptance” phase of this traumatic event.  We hoped that Nick and Joe would at least still work on their solo music post-breakup.  Nick Jonas & The Administration is one of our favorite under-appreciated albums of all time (if you’re commanding Prince’s band at the age of 17…nothing but respect).  And as great as “Love Slayer” was, we’re still hoping to hear some of the “weird music he wrote with Robert Schwartzman” that Joe mentioned in his NY Magazine tell-all.

We’re thrilled that Nick Jonas has signed to Island Records and released his first post-breakup single as a solo artist!  Nick J really is off the chain in this new single. Listen to the track, “Chains,” below!

It’s definitely a departure from his work with the Administration, but it sounds a lot like the Jonas Brothers tracks we heard off of their unreleased album, “V,” on tour last summer.   By the way, we love how Nick just dropped his single.  No months of hype, no constant tweeting of the word “soon.”  Just music.
