Jonas Brothers: 'It's Over For Now'

Nearly three weeks after the Jonas Brothers announced they were canceling their tour due to a "deep rift within the band," the brothers tell PEOPLE that they’ve decided to call it quits.

“It’s over for now,” Kevin Jonas says.

“It’s really hard to say ‘forever,’ ” says Nick. “We’re closing a chapter, for sure.”

“It was a unanimous decision,” says Joe.

It came after a meeting on Oct. 3, where Nick Jonas confessed to his brothers that he had serious concerns about the future of the band.

“I was feeling kind of trapped,” he said. “I needed to share my heart with my brothers.”
