June 12, 2009 -- The Jonas Brothers wowed a packed crowd in Central Park Friday with a free concert as part of "Good Morning America's" Summer Concert series.

A little rain didn't dampen the spirits of the thousands of lucky fans in attendance for the "GMA" performance. The concert in Central Park came just days before the release of Jonas Brothers' fourth album, "Lines, Vines and Trying Times" and the band kicked off with a performance of the first single from the new album, "Paranoid."

Kevin Jonas told "GMA" that the album's title represents the band's journey. "We went through a lot in making it," he said. "Vines are the things on the path that are holding you back."

Still, he said, "this is a hopeful record...it's a lot of fun."

Nick Jonas said that the band was "inspired by a lot of different people on this album," including Neil Diamond.

"Neil Diamond was a big one for us. We actually did a charity event with him in this last year, and we played one of his songs and we got to meet him," said Joe Jonas. "Everybody knows Neil Diamond, but once you get into it you're really into it."
