The O’Keefe Music Foundation, launched by music teacher Aaron O’Keefe in 2006, provides high quality music education to any child in the world for free. They regularly upload video of the students’ performances, and the 2013 cover of Tool’s “Forty Six & 2” has received over 30 million views on YouTube to date.
In 2024, vocalist Kala Rose – who was 11 years-old at the time of the O’Keefe Music Foundation recording – revisited the song with her band, Saving Escape. Check out fan-filmed video below, along with the original OMF video.
Aaron O’Keefe: “OMF is a non-profit music organization based in Ohio, USA, with a mission to provide high quality music education to any child in the world for FREE! Why? Because art gives voice to our dreams and live music performance is becoming a dying art. Since 2006, OMF has helped over 1000 students make countless music videos… with over 80 million combined YouTube views!
You can read more about us on our website, view other great music vids, and even apply to be an OMF rockstar (as long as you are 18 or under)! You can also buy some cool merch, or support us in recording more great songs and videos in the future.”
