"The Scrolls" was the working band name of Works Progress Administration (W.P.A), an American eight-piece supergroup. The members of the octet are Sean Watkins (guitar), Sara Watkins (fiddle), Glen Phillips (guitar), Benmont Tench (piano), Luke Bulla (fiddle), Greg Leisz (various instruments), Pete Thomas (drums), and Davey Faragher (bass).Graff, Gary.

Retrieved January 20, 2008.] The group is comprised of members of Nickel Creek, Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers, Elvis Costello and the Imposters, and Toad the Wet Sprocket.

The project started in September 2007, when W.P.A began to record songs for an upcoming album release. In Sara Watkins' December 2007 MySpace blog, she said "we're hoping to nearly (finish) the record in the next few days. We're tracking live and trying to get as much down at one time as possible. It is a very satisfying way to record".Watkins, Sara. "a full house - Zep." "MySpace". December 16, 2007. Retrieved January 21, 2008.]

Some of the tracks recorded for possible inclusion on the upcoming release include the Phillips penned tracks "Rise Up", "You Will Always Have My Love", "Make Me Forget", "Better Off Here" and "End This Now", as well as a Luke Bulla/Glen Phillips collaboration entitled "Cry For You", which can be heard streaming on Luke's myspace page.

The album version of "You Will Always Have My Love" can now be heard streaming at www.wpamusic.com. the album, according to Phillips, is due in early 2009
