DNCE is an American pop band that burst onto the music scene in 2015 with an infectiously funky and dance-oriented sound. Formed by former Jonas Brothers' member Joe Jonas, the band also includes bassist and keyboardist Cole Whittle, guitarist JinJoo Lee, and drummer Jack Lawless. The band made a striking entrance with their debut single "Cake by the Ocean," which became a hit worldwide and defined their irreverent, feel-good style.

Within a short time, DNCE carved out a niche for themselves with music that blends pop with elements of funk and disco, capitalizing on catchy hooks and upbeat rhythms. They released their debut EP, "Swaay," in 2015 and followed up with their self-titled full-length debut album "DNCE" in 2016. The band is known for their high-energy performances and charismatic presence, both of which contribute to their reputation as a must-see live act. Despite a brief hiatus, DNCE has continued to release a steady stream of music, including singles like "Kissing Strangers," which exhibit the playful and bold stylings they're known for. Their lyrical themes often revolve around love, fun, and the carefree aspect of life, aligning perfectly with their groovy instrumentation and Joe Jonas's distinctive vocals.
