NEW YORK (Billboard) - The Jonas Brothers have selected "Burnin' Up" as the first single from the teen idols' next album, "A Little Bit Longer," due in stores on August 12.

The track will be augmented with an "action-packed James Bond-esque adventure" video, according to their label, Disney-owned Hollywood Records.

"Burnin' Up" (which will be shipped June 20 to U.S. radio outlets), "Little Bit Longer" and "Pushing Me Away" were all debuted on the group's most recent tour.

The Jonas Brothers are already sizzling with "We Rock," the first single from their upcoming Disney Channel TV movie "Camp Rock." The track debuted at No. 1 on Billboard's Hot 100 Singles Sales chart this week after selling 11,000 copies in an exclusive Target edition.

The "Camp Rock" soundtrack is due June 17 via Walt Disney Records, while the movie premieres three days later. Meanwhile, the Jonas Brothers begin their "Burning Up" arena tour July 4 in Toronto with special guest Demi Lovato, who also appears in "Camp Rock."
