Playing For Change
Connecting The World Through Music

"I was walking down the street in Santa Monica, Ca, and I heard the voice of Roger Ridley singing the song 'Stand By Me'. He has so much soul and conviction in his voice. I asked him if I could come back with some cameras and recording equipment to record him performing 'Stand By Me'.

Mark Johnson, Founder

Playing For Change is a movement created to inspire and connect the world through music. The idea for this project came from the common belief that music has the power to break down boundaries and overcome distances between people.
