_[Stand By Me | Playing For Change | Song Around The World](http://vimeo.com/2539741) from [Concord Music Group](http://vimeo.com/concord) on [Vimeo](http://vimeo.com/)._[Playing for Change](http://www.playingforchange.com/band) is a multimedia movement created to inspire, connect, and bring peace to the world through music. The idea for this project arose from a common belief that music has the power to break down boundaries and overcome distances between people. No matter whether people come from different geographic, political, economic, spiritual or ideological backgrounds, music has the universal power to transcend and unite us as one human race. And with this truth firmly fixed in our minds, we set out to share it with the world.
