Playing for Change: Stand By Me

Playing for Change

“From the award-winning documentary, “Playing For Change: Peace Through Music”, comes the first of many “songs around the world” being released independently. Featured is a cover of the Ben E. King classic by musicians around the world adding their part to the song as it traveled the globe.”

If you haven’t already seen it, this video is a must-watch. I first saw it when my cousin forwarded it to me and then it appeared on Gizmodo the next day. As someone who lives in Santa Monica and has worked above the 3rd Street Promenade for 2.5 years now, I’m sorry I wasn’t around to see Roger Ridley play his music (the first street musician in the clip), but I’m so glad that it will live on in this documentary.

Purchase the CD/DVD Playing for Change “Songs Around the World” on Amazon and the CD/Music videos on iTunes.
