    ljk;ldkj;faldkj;lakdjf;lkdja;lkdj;alkdjf;lkdja;ldkjkfd;alkdj;flkja;ldkj
    jdalkjd;lkajd;lkdjad dalkdjf;ad;alkdjf;lkja;ldkjfa

    Spanned text:
    thke;akdjfkd;kadfk;dka
    fdjalkdjfdlkjf dj;djf
    lkjdkflkdakdjd;kakfj
    ;lkfjdkajdkjfdkjfdkj;f

    I’m new to css, but I’ve tried creating a class and applying but…

    Could you please describe the exact text in question? I see no such issue.

    You may also want to review using permalinks (the url ending with page id is poor for SEO purposes)

    shoot, sorry, http://backstreetbooking.com/wordpress/bangtower/

    The text (bio) should be as wide as the main photo/img
    Photo is 432px wide, the text should also span 432

    I will also bring the web/fb/yt link images up closer to the image along with the bio

    I cannot continue to help until you note the specific text

    Sorry for not being clear, trying to describe the best I can.
    Below is the actual text that needs to span 432px, underneath the Photo.

    BangTower is a progressive musical alliance featuring legendary bassist Percy Jones, who is best known for his work with Brand X, a band that also featured Genesis legend Phil Collins. Along with Jones, the power-prog trio also includes Grammy winning guitarist/engineer/producer Neil Citron. Walter Garces, who also performs with ’60s psychedelic marvels The Electric Prunes, rounds off the trio with his skillful drumming. Their maiden voyage “Casting Shadows“, produced, mixed & engineered by Neil Citron and coproduced by Jon Pomplin

    Totally smoking fusion disc! – Barry Cleveland  Guitar Player Magazine (editor’s top pick)
    This is a refreshing take of progressive compositions played with a serious no fear attitude. – Jason Kot  Bass Musician Magazine
    “Blistering fusion, screaming rock, fiery jazz – whatever you call it, this trio will
    blow you away.” – Stephanie Sollows – Progressive World

    It is the Audio Player.

    nope, Audio player and youtube are fine; it’s the text (bio) now sitting at the bottom under the web, facebook, and youtube channel link images.

    It now spans across entire boxed area of the page.
