As1one (stylized as as1one, pronounced “as one”) is an Israeli-Palestinian pop group.[1][2] People described the band as “the world’s first mixed Israeli Jewish and Palestinian Arab pop group.”[3]
History
as1one was conceived and formed by music entrepreneurs James Diener, who signed and developed Maroon 5,[4][5] and Ken Levitan, who signed and developed Kings Of Leon.[6][7] Beginning in 2021, the pair held auditions across cities and small villages in Israel.[1] After thousands of auditions, they would eventually land on a 6 member vocal and multi-instrumentalist group comprising of Nadav Philips, Niv Lin, Aseel Farah, Ohad Attia, Sadik Dogosh and Neta Rozenblat,[1] who would sing their music in English.[4] The group members come from various backgrounds, encompassing the Christian, Jewish, and Muslim faiths.[3] as1one had been in the works for multiple years, dating back before the COVID-19 pandemic.[1]
In August 2023, as1one traveled to London to record at Abbey Road Studios with Nile Rodgers.[1] The group would later relocate to Los Angeles to continue recording their debut music, flying out on October 5th, just prior to the outbreak of the Israeli-Gaza war.[8][9][10] Since the group’s arrival, as1one has collaborated with multiple producers and songwriters, including Jenna Andrews, Stephen Kirk, Danja, Justin Tranter, and Y2K.[1]
On September 13, 2024, as1one released their first single, "All Eyes on Us" (featuring Nile Rodgers). On the same date as the release, it was announced that the group had signed with the label Thirty Tigers.[11]
The story of as1one is the subject of a 4-part docu-series launching on Paramount+.[12][3]
