The "I'll Fly Away Foundation" helps to teach students in Northwest Arkansas about the history of music while inspiring them to create their own. The group goes to schools across the area and even brings along acts from Nashville to help out. The foundation is based off the song "I'll Fly Away" which was written by Albert Brumley and is the most recorded song in history. Brumley wrote that song right here in Northwest Arkansas.
