“They’ve played ... “ = They have played
“have” is an auxiliary verb used to form the present perfect tense in English, and only two of those answer choices are referring to the present perfect, A and D.
So look up present perfect in your text and let me know which is a correct description of how to use the present perfect tense, A or D.

Nope! This is how the sentence would read if A were correct:
“They played music together at a local club last year.”
D means they started playing together in the past <b>and continued</b> — “several times.”
“They played music together at a local club last year.”
D means they started playing together in the past <b>and continued</b> — “several times.”
