The Rocky Road is the fifth studio album by Damien Dempsey. In The Rocky Road, Dempsey endeavours to pull together a fine collection of ballads, some well-known and others less-so, while enrolling Dubliners John Sheahan and Barney McKenna to ensure the musicianship demonstrates familiarity and love for the songs selected. The album was released June 6, 2008, in Ireland on SonyBMG and on August 26 in the U.S. via United For Opportunity. The album has 11 tracks.
