Playing For Change Song Around

Playing For Change is a movement created to inspire and connect the world through music. The idea of ​​the project came from the common belief that music has the power to break boundaries and close distances between people.
 
Playing For Change was born in 2002 as a shared vision between co-founders Mark Johnson and Whitney Kroenke of taking to the streets with a mobile recording studio and cameras looking for inspiration. This musical journey resulted in the award-winning documentary "A cinematic discovery of street musicians."
 
In 2005, Mark Johnson was walking through Santa Monica, California, when he heard Roger Ridley's voice singing "Stand By Me." Roger felt a lot of soul and conviction in his voice, and Mark approached him and offered him a "Stand By Me" performance. Roger agreed, and when Mark returned with recording equipment and cameras, he asked Roger, "With a voice like yours, why are you singing on the streets?" Roger replied, "Man, I'm in the joy business." The Playing For Change team then traveled around the world recording and filming musicians, creating Songs Around the World and building a global family.
 
Creating music around the world has inspired us to bring together many of the best musicians we have met along our journey and form Playing For Change. These musicians come from many different countries and cultures, but through music they speak the same language. The PFC band is now touring the world and spreading the message of love and hope to the public everywhere.
 
The true measure of any movement is what it gives back to the people. So we created the Playing For Change Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to building children's music and art schools around the world and creating hope and inspiration for the future of our planet.
 
No matter who you are or where you are from, we are all united by music.
Support this movement by becoming a member and together we will make the world a better place.
