During his Road Recovery Master Class, Chris Difford referred to an excerpt of an old elder’s story entitled 'Lost’ when speaking to the Road Recovery group about when one feels lost:

"The forest breathes. Listen. It answers, I have made this place around you, If you leave it you may come back again, saying Here. No two trees are the same to Raven. No two branches are the same to Wren. If what a tree or a bush does is lost on you, You are surely lost. Stand still. The forest knows Where you are. You must let it find you. I’m in the forest, there with Road Recovery" - Chris Difford, Squeeze

"It’s so great that Road Recovery is able to connect musicians with young people struggling to stay on the right path make good music. The kids are inspired by the musicians and the artists are inspired by the opportunity to give back….a real win-win…" Dee Dee Acquisto, M.S. Senior Director, Health and Human Services MusiCares
