}}Purple Songs Can Fly is a non-profit organization that sponsors a music program at the Texas Children's Cancer Center in Houston, Texas.[1] It allows patients at the hospital to compose and record songs in a real studio.[2]

The program was founded in March 2006 by Anita Kruse,[3] a songwriter and pianist.[4][5] The Love Street Light Circus donated $10,000 to build a studio at the hospital.[6] By January 2009, patients have recorded over 116 songs.[3]

According to David Poplack, "the arts have therapeutic value" and can improve the recovery of the patients.[5]

In 2007, seven songs created through Purple Songs Can Fly were burned on purple CDs[7] and were then played on Continental Airlines flights.[8][9]
