Watch These Livestreamed Concerts During Your Social Distancing

At this point, just about every concert has been canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic — and if it’s not, you really shouldn’t be going anyway. As artists scramble to figure out what to do next, many have started livestreaming concerts on social media from their homes, empty venues, or wherever they can while they practice social distancing. Here’s a list of the performances you should be checking out while you stay inside too, updated as more artists announce their livestream plans. And hey, since you’re getting all this good, live music for free, why not use that ticket money to order merch from an independent artist right now, who could really use the business?

March 20

Ultra Music Festival
One of the first festivals to cancel because of the coronavirus, Ultra will present the Ultra Virtual Audio Festival on SiriusXM’s UMF Radio, featuring exclusive sets by Major Lazer, Afrojack, and Martin Garrix.

March 19

Indigo Girls
The folk duo will stream a performance on Facebook Live at 6 p.m. EST, “playing a low key, home grown set of songs” and taking questions from fans. Call it “Closer to Fine” — but not too close!

Dropkick Murphys
The St. Paddy’s Day show must go on for the Irish rock band, which hasn’t missed the holiday in over two decades. Watch their show live from Boston at 7 p.m. EST.

Taking up his friend Chris Martin’s mantle, Legend will stream a #TogetherAtHome concert on Instagram Live at 4 p.m. EST. And if you’re wondering, yes, Chrissy Teigen will appear.

Ben Gibbard
The Death Cab for Cutie leader will stream daily concerts from his home to Facebook and YouTube, complete with song requests and maybe even some digital guests.

Artists like Jeff Rosenstock and AJJ will rock out on a “Distant Together” mini-showcase put on by label Specialist Subject, which will stream performances by its artists on Instagram beginning at 3:55 p.m. EST.

March 16

Neil Young
After performing for a digital Bernie Sanders rally, the folk icon said he’d soon announce a series of “Fireside Sessions” from his home, streamed on most social media except Facebook (which Young is cutting off). The “down-home production” will be shot by Young’s wife, actress Daryl Hannah.

Chris Martin of Coldplay
Martin took the time he would’ve been spending with his band to stream what he dubbed a #TogetherAtHome concert on Instagram, taking requests and talking to fans.

Christine and the Queens
Chris has set a daily 6 p.m. EST appointment on her Instagram “to deal with the ENNUI” of social distancing. “Doubtful concepts and mystery guests are to be expected in the coming days,” she promises.

P!nk
The pop star posted a video of her performing “To Make You Feel My Love” on piano to Instagram, as a “free concert slash piano lessons from my heart to yours.”

Keith Urban
Even in Australia, country star Urban livestreamed a show from his home on Instagram for an audience of one: his wife Nicole Kidman, who gifted us her own dance performance throughout.

Yo-Yo Ma
The iconic cellist hasn’t forgotten about “the healthcare workers on the frontlines” of the coronavirus response, dedicating a Twitter performance of the Sarabande excerpt from Bach’s Cello Suite No. 3 to them.

Katharine McPhee & David Foster
After the Smash and Waitress star streamed a piano concert with her composer husband on Instagram, she announced the pair would put on daily concerts at 8:30 p.m. EST and take song suggestions from fans. She also wanted to remind you how many Grammys she has, which is many.

Yungblud
The first episode of The Yungblud Show, helmed by the rock performer, debuted with guests MGK, Bella Thorne, and Oliver Tree (only a pandemic could bring those names together) on YouTube.

Hinds
While quarantined in their home country of Spain, the rock band posted a video tutorial of how to play their song “Come Back and Love Me,” with each member teaching their instrument from their own home. “During these quarantined days music don’t die ?,” the band wrote.

After streaming his solo mix, Diplo presented an “A Very Lazer Sunday” livestream as Major Lazer from his home, complete with a few (less than ten!) dancers.

Alejandro Sanz & Juanes

March 14

Code Orange
One of the pioneers, we’d say, of the pandemic livestreamed concert, Code Orange streamed the release show for new album Underneath from the Roxian Theatre in Pittsburgh, for a live audience of none but an online audience of many.

Virtual Festival
A group of Nashville musicians and organizers quickly put together Virtual Festival, a collection of sets streamed on Facebook Live. They’ve currently scheduled performances for most days through the next week.

March 13

Diplo
The producer streamed a chilled out “Corona Sabbath” mix from his home, with guest Rhye.
