"Holidays: A Frightful Time" is an original new holiday song that explores the emotions and fear young people confront during the holidays. The song was written and recorded by participants in Road Recovery's Trax program.

The holiday song is now available for download with a second original song "Here We Go" which was recorded with guest lead guitarist SLASH (ex-Guns 'N Roses, Velvet Revolver), who is a longtime supporter of Road Recovery.

Road Recovery's RecoveryTrax program helps young people battle addiction and co-occurring mental health disorders such as anxiety, depression, and diabetes through the collaborative process of presenting live concert events and recording projects. Since our founding in 1998, Road Recovery has touched the lives of over 50,000 young people. Together let's help touch another 50,000 more.

SLASH performs with young participants in Road Recovery - and through a collaboration with us, records lead guitar on a song composed by youth in our Trax Program now available at www.hotathon.com/roadrecovery

"Road Recovery, they fight the good fight"
Metallica's JAMES HETFIELD Reflects on his visits with
Road Recovery's young people

Throughout Metallica’s never ending Death Magnetic global tour, founding ‘Papa Het’ James Hetfield made a point of incorporating pit stops with Road Recovery’s youth into his touring schedule whenever he passed through New York City. Just before the frost hit New York’s city streets, Hetfield crossed paths and caught up with our founder, Gene Bowen during one of his last bicycle rides in support of the 1,500 mile Rock 'N Ride NY! fundraising campaign to celebrate Road Recovery’s 15 year anniversary.

Check out James Hetfield’s video - TURN IT UP!!!
