PREMIERE: NON-PROFIT ROAD RECOVERY PARTNERS WITH SINGER-SONGWRITER ROXINY TO RELEASE THE EMPOWERING SINGLE, “VOICES IN MY HEAD”

The single is written and recorded in collaboration with The (LGBTQ) Center participants as part of the organization’s Trax Program in statewide Youth Clubhouses sanctioned by the New York State Office of Addiction Services and Supports (OASAS). Previous releases have included “Never Bet the Devil” ft. Tom Morello, “Better Together” ft. Mick Fleetwood and Don Miggs, and “Crimson Chaos” ft. Slash as part of The Golden Promise Project series.

“Voices in My Head” came out of a beautiful collaboration with the youth at the LGBTQ+ Center in NYC,” said Roxiny. “I personally came into the first session as an open canvas, and we all walked away from the experience with a song inspired by every voice in the room.The song truly speaks to overcoming the confusion in our internal dialogue. Once you can see through the veil, then you are able to own your truth against all odds. I loved every moment of this experience and was very honored to be a part of it.” 

The Trax Program offers young people the opportunity to build healthy networks during challenging times, helping them avoid self-destructive or risky behavior. The program’s goal is to empower and inspire them through self-expression and creativity while teaching invaluable life skills. Learn more here.

The Golden Promise Project series is inspired by The Golden Promise passage – written and read by Mary Guibert, Jeff Buckley’s mother, at his memorial.  From that promise, in 1998 Mary Guibert pledged that she would help launch and develop Road Recovery with its founders Gene Bowen (Buckley’s tour manager) and Jack Bookbinder (formerly part of Buckley’s artist management team). 

Guibert said, “I don’t know if anyone who’s read The Golden Promise actually took my challenge to heart, but I do know about two gentlemen (Gene Bowen and Jack Bookbinder) who did. And what they have created out of that promise has saved hundreds of lives and has become the model for nationwide programs that could save thousands more in the future. That idea became the non-profit they decided to call Road Recovery. Talk about faith the size of a mustard seed having the power to move a mountain – Jack and Gene, with the support from so many artists and industry colleagues, have moved a few – and they keep on moving them. Promises fulfilled.”
