That seems to be just the beginning. Also set to join the #TogetherAtHome gig line up will be singer Charlie Puth, whose Instagram Live performance will be at 1pm PT on 18 March. Launched by Global Citizen, the #TogetherAtHome series aims to keep fans connected with artists and bands through a series of virtual concerts for everyone at home due to the Coronavirus. Speaking about the #TogetherAtHome series, singer John Legend said: ’ Social distancing is important, but that doesn’t mean it has to be boring. I did a little at home performance to help lift your spirits.’ Country music star, Luke Combs, also provided fans with a live stream of his songs and it’s thought the likes of Miguel will follow next. The #TogetherAtHome series follows in the footsteps of the likes of Universal, who have made new movies available for early at-home streaming (opens in new tab), including Trolls World Tour, The Hunt and Frozen 2. With so many people self-isolating, it’s not just bands that are thinking outside the box either. You can now save $110 on the Facebook Portal Gen 1 (opens in new tab), which allows you to speak to your friends and family, even when you’re stuck inside. Of course, there are also the best TV streaming services (opens in new tab) to fall back on too.
