Like Michael’s writing, tension comes from an honest place that anyone can identify with. In the song The Night, he paints a picture of his depth by pleading, “Stay with me ‘til the night gets old, and my face gets tired from the smiles you stole”. That’s right, Edward Cullen, step aside.

This 22-year-old singer-songwriter’s skillfully crafted lyrics are combined with a pop-rock feel and refreshing guitar solos. And this catchy music simply oozes universal themes. Michael strives to connect with people through his music, on an emotional and auditory level. Who doesn’t need to have someone vocalize what they’re thinking once in a while? “Courage, I need you now. Courage, don’t let me down. Courage, show me the fire of your ways. Come on, Courage, I need you now.”

Though thematically, the EP explores struggle, Michael had an easy go of the recording process. He says: “I didn’t really have a time table, so I was really able to get everything the way I wanted it.” Working at The Bakery Recording Studio in Colorado Springs certainly didn’t hurt either, giving him resources to carefully craft each of the songs in this collection.

Taking cues from artists such as John Mayer, David Gray, and Jon Foreman, Michael Child, has put his heart on the line in this EP. He has opened himself to the good and to the bad. The result is the vulnerable and infectious collection of songs in The Tension.

With the advent of digital recording, the home studio started to take over the audio industry. Although some great things came from this, it made it that much harder to stand out from the rest. Also, the quality that was once known has greatly diminished. Now any person with a computer can own a “studio” and be an “audio engineer”, but the project will suffer greatly.

That is where Soteria Records comes in. With countless years of experience in the professional audio industry and the knowledge of new techniques and technology with the old, Soteria Records will make your project sound like you could never imagine.
