00:00 Joe Jonas wiping away tears as he performs "Little Bird" in front of his daughters.

00:09 "A bit overwhelmed."

00:11 The singer had an emotional moment during Thursday's Jonas Brothers tour stop in their

00:15 hometown Newark, New Jersey.

00:17 "Just keep it in your heart, don't give it to anybody else but yourself."

00:36 An ET insider notes that Nick, Joe, and Kevin's parents, Kevin Sr. and Denise Jonas, were

00:42 on grandparent duty as they sat in the audience with Joe's daughters, three-year-old Willa

00:47 and one-year-old Delphine, marking what appears to be the first time the girls have attended

00:52 their dad's current tour.

01:12 The family was joined by Kevin's wife, Danielle, and their daughters, nine-year-old Alina and

01:18 seven-year-old Valentina, as well as the youngest Joe bro, Frankie Jonas, who took the stage

01:24 at one point during the show's intermission.

01:29 As for Joe's heartfelt performance, it comes amid his divorce from Sophie Turner, with

01:33 whom he shares both daughters.

01:35 The former couple was married for four years.

01:42 In October, Joe and Sophie underwent what was reported to be heated mediation sessions

01:47 in order to work out a temporary custody arrangement.

01:51 According to docs obtained by ET, the co-parents are alternating weeks with their kids through

01:56 the end of the year.

01:57 Joe shared Thanksgiving with the girls, while Sophie will have them on Christmas.

02:06 And, it turns out, little Bird has proven to be quite the tearjerker on the Joe Bros

02:20 tour.

02:31 In Chicago, Joe was visibly emotional after a fan asked them to perform it in honor of

02:35 their dad, who died.

02:46 Before that, Kevin cried while performing the song for a fan in Mexico City whose daughter

02:51 died.

02:53 And before hitting the road, the singers opened up to ET about the sweet track.

03:03 Kevin, Joe and Nick, who wrote the song for their daughters, have five little girls between

03:08 them.

03:09 It's the first song we ever wrote about being fathers.

03:23 And I think it's something special, heartfelt and truly organic about that whole experience.

03:30 Nick shares Malty, who returns to next month with his wife Priyanka Chopra.

03:41 Meanwhile Joe has been wearing his heart on his sleeve.

03:45 Literally.

03:46 Rocking some fresh ink on his chest.

03:48 Two dates with an ex between them.

03:50 7/22/20 in honor of Willa's birthday and 7/5/22 for Delphine's.

04:00 Here's hoping less tears and more joy for all the Joe Bros in 2024.

04:05 "I'm a believer!"

04:06 "Woo!"

04:07 "Woo!"

04:08 "Woo!"

04:13 Woo!
