Arcadia, Alison Krauss and Union Station’s first studio album in nearly ten and a half years, has a release date.
The song “Looks Like the End of the Road,” which Krauss claims crystallized this album cycle and helped guide the group’s next artistic phase, is provided as a preview of the project.
“Usually I find something that’s a first song, and then things fall into place,” she says. It was called ‘Looks Like the End of the Road.'” It was written by Jeremy Lister, and as usual, I could hear the men performing it already. It felt so real.
The band will embark on a long 2025 tour with International Bluegrass Hall of Famer Jerry Douglas after Arcadia’s full-length arrival on March 28.

In the bluegrass community, Krauss is a famed singer-songwriter. However, country fans are more familiar with her from her role on the O Brother Where Art Thou album and her 2003 duet with Brad Paisley, “Whiskey Lullaby.”
Before Beyonc broke her record and won her 28th golden gramophone in 2021, she was also the most-awarded female musician in Grammy history.
Alison Krauss & Union Station, “Looks Like the End of the Road” Lyrics:
This is the circus’s last day.And I feel as depressed as a clown. My cosmetics are drowning. In blood, perspiration, heartbreak, and terror because I lost what I found when I looked around.
The chorus
I never imagined I’d cross paths when I first started. The boundaries that were established a long time ago are lost and buried in ego and lines. I drank it down, but I can’t hide it. I’ve ran out of luck with the lives I’ve lost.Farewell to the world I’m familiar with. It appears to be the end of the road.
In alone on the gloomiest nights / And I’m at the end of my rope. surrounded by flames Take the jug’s plug out. However, you can’t get it off your mind. Or keep up with the criminals
Repetition of the chorus
It seems like the end of the road. Goodbye to the world I know. Farewell to the world I’m familiar with. It appears to be the end of the road.
