Background and development

On September 4, 2014, Jonas tweeted a message that said that he had a big announcement coming the next day. The next day he announced that he would go on tour. [1] He also revealed the tour dates. [2] On September 6, fans could pre- order his upcoming album to get early access to the tour ticket sale. They will also receive a download of his single "Jealous" on September 8, 2014. [3]

The Tour was part of the promotional effort to Jonas' solo project. It came in a wave of new found freedom the artist was experiencing since departing from the band with his brothers. [4]

Jonas also joined Demi Lovato on stage for select shows of the concert tour, performing three of her songs with her. [5]

The promotion to the eponymous solo project also helped Jonas to better understand himself as an artist, stripping away from the influence and dynamic of being part of a band, while also allowing him to have a better schedule to venture through acting whilst promoting his music. [6]
