That Somethin’
One Reality is made up of friends, Jonathan K. Waller and Caelyn D. Williams. Williams and Waller met at their meditation community, Awake Yoga Meditation, and began singing together during services. After years of singing together and working on projects, the two officially formed the group at the end of 2021. Right away they realized how well they worked together. They wrote, recorded and released their first single, "That Somethin'" in just 2 months. And without slowing down, they released "Higher" and then their newest single, "Better Days" to all platforms.
Waller and Williams both share a love for the story-telling of musical theatre, the riffs/harmonies of R&B and the musicality of a cappella. Taking the best aspects of all mixed with Waller’s captivating production, One Reality has a unique, fresh sound that enchants, uplift and enliven their listeners.

the artists
JONATHAN K. WALLER is an award-winning, multi-genre singer-songwriter / producer with credits including NBCUniversal, Peacock, and USA Network. He heads Jonny Creations Studio, producing for various sync projects that include his indie-pop act Big Red Capes, his swagger rock project, Days of Leo, and more.
Waller has also written for the theatre. He co-wrote a musical based on the best-selling Flat Stanley book series called The Musical Adventures of Flat Stanley, which received a 60-city national tour and has Junior, TYA, and Concert versions available to license through Music Theatre International.
Waller is a proud Dad to 2 wonderful kids and husband to an amazing wife, who lovingly supported his crazy idea to leave a 15-year career as a marketing executive and pursue his dream of making music.
CAELYN D. WILLIAMS began singing at the age of 5. Her mother is a former choir director and vocalist, and thus, music became her blueprint for life. By the time she was in high school, she and her brother, a vocalist and pianist, had been traveling for years to different churches in the region under the name, The Sommerville Singers.
Williams has been invited as a featured soloist at theatres/organizations such as The Music Center at Strathmore, NAACP, the Maryland Department of Education, as well as many others. She was a late-stage finalist of NBC’s The Voice, has sung background vocals for many artists and performed in numerous musical theatre productions. Caelyn is currently a member of Skyline, a cover band under the contract of EastCoast Entertainment, that performs at weddings, private parties and corporate events.
Williams is grateful and excited for this new sync journey with her good friend, as One Reality.
