La Neal Casal Music Foundation è stata creata per onorare la memoria del grande singer songwriter e chitarrista Neal Casal, da qualche mese scomparso, e per realizzare opere con fini di beneficienza col contributo di artisti provenienti da diverse discipline.
I più recenti progetti sono un libro di fotografie, Tomorrow’s Sky: Photographs By Neal Casal, curato e prodotto da Ricky e Jay Blackesberg, e un disco tributo, Highway Butterfly: The Songs Of Neal Casal, con la partecipazione di moltissimi artisti, come potete vedere nella tracklist sotto qui.
I proventi di entrambe le opere saranno devolute a diverse organizzazioni, come MusiCares, Backline e altre.
