The group's line-up consisted of Nate Cole, Jason Perry, Jeremy Mhire, Nathan Walters and Gabe Combs.
Jason Perry and Jeremy Mhire left the band in 2003, and the remaining three members signed a deal with Inpop Records.
Plus One began to take shape as early as 1999 and formed by a manager named Mitchell Solarek, when 18-year-old Sacramento, California-boy Nate Cole was joined by 20-year-old Gabe Combs of Pittsburg, California, 21-year-old Nathan Walters of Lakeland, Florida and the 19-year-old Jeremy Mhire of Springfield, Missouri, who had been engrossed in vocal studies as a junior on full scholarship to Southwest Missouri State University.
The group came to complete fruition with the arrival of 17-year old Jason Perry of Madison, Indiana, who up to that moment had been focusing on his role as starting fullback and defensive end for his high school football team.
Auditions were held, and these five young men, who were all raised in the Assembly of God Church, three of them being pastors' sons, came together and melded as a group, all firmly believing that the Lord had brought them together to be in Christian ministry, to do great things for the Gospel.
1 on the charts for two months, and "God Is in This Place" followed by "Last Flight Out", "Here in My Heart", and the other radio singles "Run to You" and "Soul Tattoo".
They gave performances at the 2000 Democratic National Convention, and several major league sporting events including games with the Los Angeles Lakers, Chicago Bulls, and Atlanta Hawks.
The band was featured on Teen Magazine Online and performed at Atlanta Fest and the Raggedy Ann Festival in Arcola, IL, as part of their tour schedule.
Returning from the Promise tour, Plus One went back into the studio to record songs for a new album, this time including some of their own material, tracks like "Use Me", a ballad called "You", "Under the Influence", "Kick Me", and "Going Crazy".
Three of the album's tracks, "Camouflage", "I Don't Care" and "Let Me Be the One", became hit singles on the top-ten Christian radio charts.
