"The Treadmill" converts frustration around feeling stuck in life into a short, but sweet synth-pop track. Everything from the minimalistic chord progression to the chorus that builds only to strip back to a repeated piano note captures the feeling of working hard, but never seeming to make any progress. It was inspired by my experiences balancing my music career dreams with a part-time restaurant job in the context of the 2026 economy; its frank lyrics will surely resonate with other burnt-out yet hopeful dreamers.

Dramatic, cathartic, hyperbolic yet conversational, “Calm Before The Storm” is the entry to a new era for Bethany Paige Campbell. First written in a stream of her consciousness in her bedroom, the song was reinvented in the studio as dramatic synth-pop with orchestral swells and thunderous choruses. “Calm Before The Storm” is the space for the listener to feel life’s big feelings without the need to intellectualize. Streaming on May 15th, it is available to download now here on the website or on Bandcamp.
