I've loved the Playing for Change project and all they've created since it's conception. Mark Johnson's vision for Peace through Music is inspiring.
My personal favorite along the Playing for Change journey has always been Grandpa Elliott, a street performer since the age of 6 (he's now 70!) from a corner in New Orleans. Grandpa Elliott's heart and soul are palpable as he does what he loves...sharing his music with the people of New Orleans. Now, through Playing for Change, his music is global. His new CD Sugar Sweet is newly released.
Watch this video for a taste of Grandpa Elliott's Sugar Sweet(ness)~
(Apparently Playing for Change's video player is not embeddable in Posterous...so here's a link for you...)
Enjoy! :)
