Jonas Brothers lead first wave of artists confirmed for Capital's Summertime Ball

The Jonas Brothers will play their first UK show in almost a decade at Capital's Summertime Ball.

The pop trio - comprised of brothers Kevin, Nick and Joe Jonas - will perform at the annual one-day music extravaganza at Wembley Stadium on June 8, a day after the release of their eagerly-awaited new album 'Happiness Begins'.

The siblings - who last performed in the British capital on their world tour in 2009 - made their huge comeback with the single 'Sucker' in March and they followed the instant hit up with recent album track 'Cool'.

The announcement was made on the 'Capital Breakfast show with Roman Kemp' on Monday (29.04.19) morning, where it was also confirmed that Mark Ronson, Halsey, Ellie Goulding, 5 Seconds of Summer and Khalid are playing the event.

More artists will be confirmed tomorrow morning (30.04.19) on Roman's early morning show on UK radio station Capital FM.

Several billboards were placed around the UK teasing the news, with a 'Ball Board' texted in to the show to help Roman Kemp, Vick Hope and Sonny Jay unveil the star-studded bill live on air.
