The latest from the Playing for Change folks.

Jesus Diaz of Gizmodo describes it:

There’s Roberto Luti in Italy on steel guitar, Washboard Chaz in New Orleans adding more percussion and then Roselyn Williams fires up her amazing voice to sign Jaggers’ lyrics from Kingston, Jamaica. From there, it just keeps getting better and better. At the end of the process, those parts get remixed in a central studio to make the cover you are listening to now. Or the cover I’m listening to now, because I have it on a loop. I just can’t have enough of it.
