1) The group consists of members Joe Jonas , Jack Lawless, Cole Whittle, and JinJoo Lee.
2) The idea for DNCE first came about while Jonas and Lawless were living together, though the project was put on hold due to the duo's busy schedules.
3) The group named themselves DNCE after the name of a song written for the album, which lyrically speaks of being too drunk to spell the word "dance".
4) Jonas later added the group decided on the name as it described the "imperfect awesome[ness] of the four of [them] together." JinJoo later added that much like the spelling of the word, you don't have to be a perfect dancer to dance in life.
5) Band member Cole Whittle has said that "Musically, we sound like disco funk hits played by a good garage band."
6) The band's influences include the Electeic Light Orchestra, Sly and The Family Stone, Weezer, Earth,Wind & Fire, Hall & Oates, Prince, the Bee Gees and Led Zeppelin.
7) In November 2015, the DNCE embarked on the Greatest Tour Ever Tour, which included 14 dates around the country. It was also sponsored by Diesel, who provided designer dudes that the band wore while performing.
8) In March 2016, DNCE released a video for their cover of Rihanna's song "Work." What makes the cover unique is the fact that they don't use any real instruments on it, only staplers, computer keyboards, calculators and other office supplies. The video actually gets pretty chaotic, with paper and supplies being strewn all over the place as the song glitches out.
9) Joe Jonas has been dating supermodel Gigi Hadid for nearly a year. Just as he supports her by watching her walk during fashion week, she supports his work too. Hadid even directed the band's music video for the platinum-selling single "Cake by the Ocean."
10) During the song "Jinx," Cole Whittle plays the kazoo as part of the chorus. This unique instrumental choice has taken hold with their fans. Now, the band sells kazoos at their shows so their fans can harmonize during the song.
