Last week, BWW reported that the Jonas Brothers had confirmed reports that they would be breaking up for good. The New Jersey-based brothers appeared on ABC's Good Morning America to explain to their fans the reasons behind their decision, which came three weeks after they canceled their concert tour, citing a "deep rift" in the band.

Less than one week later, Nick Jonas treated fans to his first solo gig on Sunday, Nov. 3, singing the Avicii hit "Wake Me Up" at Live In The Vineyard in Napa Valley, CaliF. Earlier that day the 21-year-old tweeted, "Wine and music tonight. Who's coming to Live in The Vineyard tonight?"

A source told E! News exclusively that "there are no personal issues" between the siblings. "They just all wanted different things. They love each other. They always will," adding, "Nick wants to focus on music and Broadway."

Jonas also encouraged fans to watch the new trailer for his upcoming film 'Careful What You Wish For,' hitting theaters in 2014. "Hey everybody.. Go check out the 1'st teaser for the movie I did earlier this year Careful What You Wish For," he posted yesterday afternoon.
