Burning My Travels Clean is an album by Rocky Votolato.[1] It was released on April 16, 2002, by the independent label Second Nature Recordings. The album incorporates a number of folk elements (the predominance of acoustic guitar, the use of fiddle, and lyrics centered on the loneliness or isolation of the singer and his impoverished background) but also contains clear strains of rock music. The major themes of the album include his relationship with his wife and his dedication to music. The album received very little press upon its release, going unmentioned by both the independent and mainstream music critic publications.
