A drama based on the life story of late C&W songwriter Blaze Foley. It's an adaptation of "Living in the Woods in a Tree". Foley is the unsung, hard-living songwriting legend of the Texas Outlaw Music movement that spawned the likes of Merle Haggard and Willie Nelson. Foley was born in a tree house, and was killed in a friend's living room from a gunshot wound. He wrote hit tunes that included "If I Could Only Fly" and "Election Day".
