From the award-winning documentary, Playing For Change: Peace Through Music, comes "Stand By Me," the first of many Songs Around The World produced by Playing For Change. This Ben E. King classic features musicians around the world recorded by the Playing For Change team during their travels. This song continues to remind us that music has the power to break down boundaries and overcome distances between people.
