Jazz singer Daryl Sherman, a Woonsocket native living in New York, will be included on the soundtrack to the film "Johnny Mercer: The Dream's On Me," a documentary tribute to the songwriter executive-produced by Clint Eastwood and produced and directed by Bruce Ricker.

The soundtrack includes Mercer songs performed by a variety of singers, including Ella Fitzgerald doing "Midnight Sun," Tony Bennett and Bono on a duet of "I Wanna Be Around," Queen Latifah on "Trav'lin Light" and Sherman singing "I Thought About You."

The film will premiere Nov. 4 on Turner Classic Movies. It will be re-aired Nov. 18, also on TCM, and will be available on DVD Dec. 8.
