Responding to the ban on group gatherings, hometown hero Ben Gibbard (of Death Cab for Cutie and The Postal Service fame) started a living room concert series. Every day at 4 p.m., Gibbard streams live performances from his couch. During the hour-long sets, he plays requests and stumps for local charities.
Lots of other local and independent artists have come up with the same idea, although most of them aren’t performing daily. Local radio station KEXP is keeping track of online concerts in a calendar on its website. (The station also has a huge catalog of live in-studio recordings on its YouTube channel.)
Seattle Symphony is sharing full concert videos for free. Check the schedule and tune in.
