Got some relatives or friends coming into town who will be taking the Metro? Teach ‘em the rules with a catchy song from a DC jazz group, in a snazzy song called “Stand Right.”
Published last spring, the song features Aaron Myers on vocals, Oren Levine, words, music, and piano, Percy White, bass and Wes Crawford on drums.
