One Third releases One Away
Dynamic trio, One Third, recently released a catchy one drop Reggae love song, One A Way, which the group reports has been receiving heavy rotation on local stations and great reviews from their fans.
“The reception has been great and we expect that this song is going to hit the charts,” said One Third’s Al Johnson.
The song was written by group member, Adrian Campbell, who said that he had wanted to do a one drop love song that would appeal to the group’s female fans.
“One Third is for the ladies and so we wanted to do a song that would really make them think of how special they are to us,” said the 25-year old singer.
One A Way is a part of a promotional sampler cd that the group has just completed. The other songs on the sampler are: Party Party, Feel Nice, Naturally, The Streets and I Wanna Know What Love is.
“This is a step on the way to completing our album – hopefully by next year,” said One Third member, Miguel Walters.
In April 2005, the three young men formed the group One Third. By 2006, they were a household name in Jamaica blazing a new trail by becoming the only group to have won the Digicel Rising Stars talent competition. Since then the group has been delivering quality music to their fan base. They have appeared on several major events, including CVM TV’s Startime, Teensplash, Stars R Us, Irie Jamboree New York, Jamaica Jerk Festival in Miami on two occasions, Port Royal Music Festival, Cayman Island Independence Concert, the Mothers Day concert To Mom with Love with Air Supply, Love On The Harbour with Peabo Bryson and a number of other calendar events.
The group also shared stage with the internationally renowned The Manhattans, The Stylistics, The Chi-lites, Blue Magic, Brian McKnight, Regina Bell, Freddy Jackson, Damian “Junior Gong” Marley, Shaggy, Maxi Priest, Mr. Vegas, Beenie Man, Luciano, Da’ville, and Taurus Riley; also with Jamaican legends such as, Beres Hammond, John Holt, Alton Ellis, Ken Boothe, Yellow Man, The Clarendonians, Jimmy Riley, Leroy Sibbles, Gregory Isaacs and others.
The group has also made time to do charity work and has been an active part of the Voices for Climate Change Education Project – a national public education campaign sensitizing Jamaicans on the dangerous impacts on climate change.
