biographical info

The band A Minute Away, with over 6 million YouTube views and currently YouTube's 11th most subscribed musicians in Canada, (www.youtube.com/theunbornband)
have recently recorded their first full studio album '84', which was featured on the Y108 (FM 107.9) "Get Hammered" indie showcase in November 2008 and is also available on Itunes.

With over 50,000 unique views on their MySpace (www.myspace.com/aminuteaway) in their first year
A Minute Away is ready to rock.

This 3 piece rock trio hails from Brantford, Ontario, Canada, and havejust released their first studio recorded 11-track album entitled '84.'This album has been in the works for quite some time, as the bandmembers have been playing on and off, in and out of bands, since theirmusic experiences have started. Lead Singer/Bassist Dan Carrillo andGuitarist Brad Martin have known each other for over fifteen years,initially meeting one another in kindergarten. As the band members grewup, Brad Martin met Drummer Dan Amos through sports, and began playingmusic together. Years later, Dan Carrillo crossed paths with Dan Amos,and came up with the idea of forming a band.

After several months of undergoing practices, line-up changes,instruments, and rehearsal spaces, the two of them phoned Brad Martin,who they both had musical experience with in the past. They formed aband called Down N Outat the age of 15. With minor local success and local appreciation, theband played a handful of shows including The Opera House, and TheKathedral in Toronto, ON. As the band aged, they took separate paths into their adult lives and ultimately Down N Out was finished.
 

Several years later, at the age of 22, the three of them were still incontact with one another, and decided to give it one more shot. Thistime, being not only older with more experience but with careers andmusical ambition, the band created a project. A project that had beenlong over due; each individual member bringing their own unique musicaltaste, style, and talent, to lead the band to create A Minute Away, and their first studio recorded album '84'. With a powerful, energetic, and unforgettable sound, A Minute Away and their music will leave you begging for more.

Remember, we're just a minute away.
