LOS ANGELES, Calif. --

Nick Jonas is leaving his brothers behind – temporarily.

According to Denise Jonas, Nick’s mom, the teen, who just turned 17 last month, is prepping a new project, apparently without Kevin and Joe.

“Nick is working on a solo act — it’s called Nick Jonas and The Administration,” Denise told Parade.com. “Shhh! He’s at the photo shoot for the album cover right now.”

Rumors have circulated that Nick, the JoBros’ main songwriter, was planning a solo project for some time, but Denise’s comments are the first official confirmation.

While Nick will no doubt be busy with The Adminstration, his brother Kevin is busy gearing up to be a groom.

As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, Kevin, 21, is engaged to Danielle Deleasa and Denise told Parade she couldn’t be happier with her son’s bride.

“Kevin and his fiancee Danielle have set their wedding date,” Denise revealed. “But it’s completely private. Danielle, bless her heart, is from a great little Italian family. She is everything I ever prayed for and hoped for Kevin.”
