Happiness Begins

Happiness Begins is the fifth studio album by the American pop rock band Jonas Brothers. It was released on June 7, 2019, through Republic Records. The album marks their first studio album since Lines, Vines and Trying Times (2009). For the record, the band enlisted producers Ryan Tedder, Greg Kurstin, Justin Tranter, along with Joel Little, Mike Sabath and Shellback, to help create a "new and improved sound" with "feel-good tracks" for a pop album.

The album is the first body of work of original material released by the group since their reunion on February 28, 2019, and marked a departure from the more pop rock-oriented sound from their previous albums. It was preceded by their comeback single "Sucker", and was supported by the singles "Cool" and "Only Human", all of which appeared on several charts across the world, with the former debuting atop the Billboard Hot 100.

The record received positive reviews from critics, who highlighted its production values and upbeat, pop-oriented sound. Some reviewers called it a welcomed reunion for the band, with Happiness Begins being regarded as one of the best albums from the Jonas Brothers' catalog. Critics also noted that the album captured the band's mature essence, while preserving the charm present since their early years.

The album debuted at number atop the US Billboard 200 and charted on multiple countries. It has sold over one million units in the United States, being certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). It has also received gold or higher certifications in Canada, Brazil, Denmark, Netherlands, Poland and Singapore. To support the album, the Jonas Brothers embarked on the Happiness Begins Tour, which took place in Europe and North America, from August 7, 2019, to February 22, 2020, having performed 92 shows.
