“I won’t lie. It isn’t an ideal situation. Sometimes, you wonder, ‘well, why am I doing this again?’ You definitely experience those moments.”

His love for music keeps him going. That, and the hope of mainstream success. “The rewards are immeasurable,” Petralli says. “You get to make records and sing to people for a living. That’s just the most amazing thing. To walk out on stage is the best feeling in the world. The other stuff might be a chore — performing never grows old. You are always crossing your fingers that your next record will be successful, so that you can bring your family on the road with you.”
