In anticipation of its beta launch this September, live music
streaming portal iWantJam announced that Boston-based band One Step
Away was the second act to be selected as an 'iWantJam Endorsed
Artists'. As an Endorsed Artist, One Step Away will be prominently
featured on the iWantJam site for a one-month period, including on the
homepage, music played exclusively on iWantJam music player as well as
exposure through iWantJam social network profiles and connections. In
addition, One Step Away will have an opportunity to compete with other
endorsed artists to extend their endorsement for a full three month
period. iWantJam had previously announced Zurich-based Miss Diamond
DJane as its first Endorsed Artist.
"Since the release of their first EP in 2008, One Step Away have been
a very active band, performing live and trying to growing their
fanbase," said iWantJam founder Moataz El-Gohary. "The fact that they
were featured in various publications and has been selected for a
several awards and scholarships, reflects the band's efforts and
potential. They just fit "IWJ endorsed artist" criteria."
One Step Away first began in 2007 when friends Terence Healy (guitar)
and Mike Nuzzolo (bass) began playing together. It wasn't long before
Adam Carrington brought his classically trained voice into the mix,
helping to define the sound that would become associated with One Step
Away. An EP later, drummer Ben Trudeau joined the fray. The path since
then has been an upward one, with larger and larger gigs covering a
bigger geographic area. One Step Away has now played coast to coast
and won several regional and national competitions for songwriting and
performance. In early 2010 One Step Away dove into the studio with
producers Dan Malsch and Alec Henninger of Soundmine Recording Studio
(Four Year Strong, Framing Hanley, Forever the Sickest Kids). The
resulting album, "For the Broken", has One Step Away poised on the
brink of the big time. Last winter, One Step Away won the Break the
Band contest. Recently, One Step Away was chosen by Clear Channel and
iHeartRadio as a winner in the Get Discovered! Contest, earning them a
performance on the MDA Telethon in front of 40 million viewers across
the country.
One Step Away has appeared on hundreds of national and local TV and
radio stations across the country including: ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, CWN,
MNT, IND, TELEMUNDO, WCRB,WBZ, WCTX, WNAC, WSBK, WPXT, WXKS KISS 108,
WWLP, WBRU, WZLX,WPXC,WMLN, WSNC, WCAP and performed with big name
bands on stages like Universal Studios Hollywood, Fox Theater, MGM
Grand and more. One Step away has been featured on numerous blogs and
