Over the last years, I have enjoyed marrying the folk music traditions of North America with my Latin American heritage, and today I am delighted to share YO VOLARÉ, my take on “I’ll Fly Away”, one of the most well known gospel hymns. I love this song, and for years, I thought about a version of it in Spanish. I finally came up with an adaptation I like to sing that I believe is true to its original sentiment. Crossing to another side can have many meanings, but wherever you are on your journey, here’s a song to take with you.
