The New Jersey Hall of Fame is home to legends like Frank Sinatra, Jon Bon Jovi, Bruce Springsteen, Count Basie, Frankie Valli, Queen Latifah and so many other renowned artists. The New Jersey Hall of Fame welcomes Nick, Kevin and Joe Jonas, the Jonas Brothers to the Class of 2025.

NJ Advance Media contacted representatives of the New Jersey Hall of Fame Saturday to ask about Puente’s Jersey connection. Steve Edwards, the president of the hall of fame, said that Puente, the star of mambo and Latin jazz who was 77 when he died in 2000, spent some time living in Bergen and Passaic counties.

Kevin, Nick and Joe Jonas, who grew up in Wyckoff, will be inducted into the New Jersey Hall of Fame this fall.
