Joe Jonas feels free

Joe Jonas wasn’t able to write about his "sexual or romantic" experiences whilst in the Jonas Brothers.
The ‘Cake By The Ocean’ hitmaker enjoys being able to express himself more now he is not affiliated with the Disney group.
He said: "Hollywood Records were under Disney … and obviously just the age we were, we had to be careful with the certain things we wrote and said …
"We couldn’t be too sexual or romantic in certain ways. And that’s tough because at the same time you’re growing up and you want to write about these experiences you’re having as a young adult."
And the 27-year-old singer much prefers the touring experience now he is older.
He told the new issue of Notion magazine: "Now being older, there’s new experiences that I get to have, or just as an adult, like touring and travelling … you go out for a few drinks after the show.
"That’s just so different already than what I am used to – getting on the tour bus and going to bed or watching a movie. It was all exciting and good but these experiences now, on my own, on the road, its really great."
Meanwhile, Joe previously admitted he was "envious" of his brother Nick when he went solo.
He shared: "I was seeing a therapist and I wasn’t on speaking terms with my brothers. And maybe I was a little envious of Nick because I knew that he already had kind of a leg up and had plans to work on music already and he was creating and producing … I closed myself off and we cancelled the tour and didn’t really know what was going on."
