Dan Pallotta Shares New Single ‘End of the Road’

Massachusetts-based folk singer-songwriter Dan Pallotta shares his brand new single End of the Road, an eerie, melancholic folk/americana gem that explores the grace and transcendence that can be found in hitting rock bottom. 

 

Narrated by the end of the road itself, End of the Road pairs Pallotta's rich, deep vocals with a warm folk production that instantly sets the tone for a memorable and enthralling listening experience, especially for those cold days home alone. Some times reaching rock bottom is the only way for many to begin a journey of recovery. Accompanying Dan Pallotta's gorgeous vocals we have intricate banjo playing that is beautifully layered with piercing harmonica, creating an overall warm and intimate atmosphere that enhances the message of his relatable storytelling.

Speaking about the song, Dan Pallotta said,

I’m sober myself in a twelve-step program and I remember that fork in the road when I hit bottom—and in recovery, I’ve seen many others arrive at it. Some choose recovery and some choose death. The bottom is in many ways the foundation of recovery. It’s a critical feature, and I wanted to bring that specific feature to life. This eerie yet warm folk song is narrated by the end of the road itself. He’s seen this all before, a hundred million times with a hundred million addicts. He’s impartial, matter-of-fact—just welcoming the addict to his new reality. He passes no judgment. He offers an opportunity to transcend. This is the situation you’re in. How do you want to handle it? Is it going to be acceptance or resistance? Grace or defiance?
