Artist History One Step Back is a Pensacola, FL based new-school punk band that was formed in the Fall of 1997 by Charlie, Ben, and Scott. Originally, it was going to be a super fast, old-school punk band playing one minute songs to have fun and get crowds charged up. As they were writing, however, they found that their songs began coming out with a new-school sound combined with intricate guitar work, therefore they pursued that style. After many songs were written, their style became defined as "New-school, Melodic, Pop-Punk, with a Metal edge". Influences such as Strung Out, Lagwagon and Choke come out in their style of punk. Soon they added vocalist Nate Orderica, a friend Charlie met at his college who had been in previous punk bands in California. Their first gig was as a four-piece but soon after they realized that they wanted a duel guitar sound. They then acquired bassist Greg Hunsucker and Scott moved to the guitar. They were a five-piece for a very short time, however, due to Nate leaving. Currently, there are four members, in One Step Back. During this time, God convicted the band to not only be for fun, but as a ministry for the lost. They now view themselves as a ministry who's first purpose is to serve the Lord through their music. In January of 1999, Lets Jet Records offered a deal and in the following June, One Step Back signed with Lets Jet over a meal at Bennigans in Pensacola, FL; their hometown. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
