Artist's Biography

Treatment In Progress is a Toronto-based four-piece rock band that has emerged with a self-produced, independent sound rooted in classic rock sensibilities and modern experimentation. Formed in the early 2020s, the group blends melodic songwriting with instrumental interplay, drawing clear influence from progressive rock traditions associated with bands like Rush while maintaining a more accessible, contemporary edge. Their 2023
releases, including a self-titled album and the EP Lend Us Your Mind, showcase a mix of vocal-driven tracks and instrumentals, reflecting both technical musicianship and a focus on atmosphere and groove.

Their music ranges from the uplifting, guitar-layered feel of “Full Life,” described by the band as a laid-back and soulful track about gratitude and presence, to instrumental pieces like “Intromental,” which leans into progressive structures and tonal complexity. Tracks such as “Jazzy” highlight their stylistic flexibility, incorporating blues and jazz elements into a catchy, groove-oriented composition that stands out for its melodic accessibility. Across their catalogue, Treatment in Progress emphasizes musicianship, evolving arrangements, and a balance between technical influence and listenable hooks, positioning themselves as a developing act within Toronto’s independent rock scene.


About the Album

The 2023 album by Treatment In Progress presents a varied and introspective collection of songs that move between groove-driven rock and more reflective, narrative-focused material. The track list includes some of the band’s more widely played songs, such as “The Plan,” “Who Am I,” and “Oblivion to Bad Air,” alongside others that round out a cohesive but emotionally diverse record. The album itself is structured less as a single thematic arc and more as a series of snapshots, each exploring a different state of mind or life situation, which gives it a grounded, almost diary-like quality.

Across the album, the themes range from personal escape and transition to everyday routines and deeper internal struggles. There are moments that deal with relationships ending and the sense of breaking free, contrasted with more grounded, almost observational pieces about work and day-to-day life. Other tracks explore heavier ideas, including identity, mental health, and altered states of perception, while some lean into simpler, social experiences like spending time with friends. The result is a mix of introspection and relatability, where the band balances heavier emotional content with lighter, more conversational storytelling, all within a consistent rock framework
