Nashville, TN — Music’s first ever
interracial female duo, AsOne,
announces the official street date for
their forthcoming self-titled debut album
‘AsOne’ – set to be released in stores and
online everywhere Tuesday, June 23 on
Capitol Christian Music
Group/360MusicWorx/Universal Music Group.
The 8-track self-titled album features the
duo’s lead single “Hero,” featuring
backing vocal contributions from Stellar
Award nominated aggregation Lamar
Campbell and Spirit of Praise (best
known for the popular hit song “I Love
You Jesus/More Than Anything”) which
has already proven itself a champion at
radio for boldly declaring God’s
undefeatable love.
The rest of the album is an assembly of
diverse sounds and musical textures
pieced together to share stories of love,
hope, faith, and triumph. “Love Is a
Better Way” zooms full speed ahead
from its beginning with its rhythmic,
horn-filled instrumentation and
messages of hope while songs like “Love
Won” and “Born To Die” narrate musical
testimonies of overcoming. This theme is
common across the album, as evidenced
by the emotional “He’s Faithful” – a
soothing number lined with tidings of
God’s everlasting faithfulness. 10-Time
Grammy Award winner Mark Kibble of
Take 6 teams up with AsOne on the song
“You Prayed Me Through.”
Elsewhere on this musical journey,
listeners are guided to the African-
inspired sounds of standout track “One”
featuring Stellar Award winning
Christian rapper Da’ T.R.U.T.H. and
Lamar Campbell & Spirit of Praise. A
percussion-laden affair, the song radiates
as an ode to appreciating everyone’s
differences and, in essence, lends itself
as an emblem to what the group stands
for – unity.
It’s that very call for unity and racial
harmony that is so desperately needed in
times like these. And, if their debut
album is any indication, AsOne has no
reservation taking a stand to spearhead
that movement.
AsOne will embark on a promotional
tour in support of their self-titled debut
release. They will make stops in Augusta,
GA at the Garden City Gospel Fest (May
30); Praise in the Park in Atlanta, GA
(August 1); Nashville (June 20); and Los
Angeles (June 27); among other cities to
be announced at a later date.

About AsOne:
Lisa and Theresa are music veterans in
their own rights. Already collecting
critical acclaim from every corner of the
country via her solo efforts, Lisa is a
celebrated songwriter whose lengthy
credits include music for Brooklyn
Tabernacle Choir, Colorado Mass Choir,
and Jana Long of Avalon. Likewise,
Theresa, a graduate of the world-
renowned Berklee College of Music in
Boston, is a highly sought after

Their musical union first proved itself a
powerful alliance when Theresa was
tapped to write for Lisa’s then-scheduled
solo project. Their chemistry was so
potent they opted to form the group
AsOne instead and were immediately
signed. In addition, after catching the
eyes and ears of Disney, the group made
their performance debut by opening on
the grand stage at the world renown
Disney castle for their annual “Night of
Joy,” which also featured the likes of top
acts Lecrae, Casting Crowns, Chris
Tomlin, and more.
