Down Time ~ Behind Locked Doors
Over the last year, six inmates in the Montana State Prison system have been hard at work writing and composing a 14 sond cd to try to get the public to better understand the life and perspective of an individual inside the ever growing prison system. Through all the obstacles they inevitably faces, these men have put together a CD/DVD Combo that includes the first ever publicly released music video from inside prison.
In this video, you will see the inside of the cell block where they live, hallways and band room while the members of Down Time play the song "Concrete Boxes" from the album "Behind Locked Doors".
Also included on the DVD is an interview with the band members and a jam session in which they play two additional songs from the album: "Statistics" and "Get It On".
If youv'e ever wondered what an inmate thinks about from his first day in prison to the things he left behind, then you would definitely gain from listening to the laid back music of Down Time. With a mix of Blues, Rock & Roll, Alternative and Pop Music; they get the message across with a sense of reality you won't find anywhere else.
The most endearing thing is that a percentage of the profits will go toward a non-profit organizations aimed at helping released prisoners find employment and housing called MOUNTAIN... (www.montanamountian.org). Other non-profit organizations to be added...
The members of Down Time put this package together for every prisoner and every family out there that has a family behind bars. It is Down Times hope that they can shed light on the subject of incarceration. It is rapidly becoming a national epidemic. The more people understand the system, the sooner we can improve the image of ex-felons who do have good intentions. Down Time is trying to help spread the message.
Down Time wants to thank all their family and friends for their continued love and support despite the poor choices that they have made in the past.
We hope that these original songs/DVD reflect that the members of Down Time have shown tasteful creativity and a willingness to try and grow beyond these walls.
