After six years with the label, the siblings reclaimed their masters and are now free agents.

The Jonas Brothers have parted ways with Hollywood Records after releasing three albums on the Disney-owned label. Comprised of siblings Nick, Kevin and Joe Jonas, the trio, which has sold 17 million albums worldwide, also bought back the rights to their master recordings, merchandising and publishing for an undisclosed sum.

“This was a decision that we made as a group,” Nick Jonas tells The Hollywood Reporter. “Naturally, as with any partnership, when you do part ways, there is emotion tied to it. We've been blessed to have a lot of success with Hollywood and with Disney, but speaking on behalf of my brothers and our team, we're all looking forward to this next chapter. We're ready for that next step as a group, and being able to take our work with us was so important.”

When contacted by THR, a Hollywood spokesperson commented, “Hollywood Records and Jonas Brothers have amicably ended an amazingly successful partnership after six years. … We couldn’t have asked for better partners or nicer people to work with. We wish Nick, Kevin, and Joe all the best in their future endeavors.”

It was rumored that Miley did it too but it turned out false

Hopefully this is true.

That's great but I don't see how they'll benefit since they don't make "adult" music. Their music is Disney friendly.

Hollywood Records is going to go bankrupt in about two years and it serves them right.

They're very smart for doing that

Very nice! They spent A LOT of money doing that but I'm definitely interested in seeing where they go with this.

Fans will love this, as it looks like part of the reason for the separation was to be closer to them.

Also interesting that another reason was something Hilary left HWR because of... NO DEADLINE. It seems that when HWR wanted an album out by a certain time, they really pushed for it.

They were certainly none to please when Dignity was not complete and ready to come out on November 21, 2006...

Tbh I want all the Disney stars of that era to move on now, its clear HWR will lose interest once they start concentrating on current Disney stars

Crazy Lights

Good for them

Everyone is dropping them like flies.

Let's not even go there. Imagine how epic Most Wanted would have been if was fully recorded.

Dignity should have came out November 21 though. She had no business doing War, Inc.

They finally ditched that go.com extension.

New site, kinda.
