about

Composed of eight songs and 59 minutes long, Contents Under Pressure features a symphonic prog approach of exploring mental health using bass guitar, trumpet, piano, and synthesizer solos, as well as guest guitarists, Landon Hankins and Ron Rutherford.

The album takes the listener for a journey from the life and perspective of someone born during the opening song and growing older as the album progresses. This "being" ventures through life unsure of himself/herself and making decisions on his/her own, some of which are questionable.
