We may all be confined to our homes for the next few weeks to stop the spread of coronavirus, be we’re certainly not alone. As more and more people around the world take the decision to self-isolate, the bonds of community are being strengthened rather than severed. Innovative ideas to stay connected are popping up in cities worldwide, such as group yoga classes live-streamed over Instagram. Coldplay’s Chris Martin took it a step further by holding a 30-minute concert on Instagram yesterday, with the hashtag #TogetherAtHome.
My friend Chris Martin did a lovely little concert from home today. I'll be doing one tomorrow at 1pm Pacific time. See you soon. We'll try to get through this together! #TogetherAtHome https://t.co/YZ8Y1W8esc

Taking a cue from Martin, John Legend is doing a concert of his own today, at 1pm PST/4pm EST. “We’ll try to get through this together,” he tweeted, adding, “It’ll be on Instagram Live at @johnlegend. Requests will be accepted.” Mindy Kaling was one of the first to get her request in, tweeting: “Can he please play the office theme with lyrics he makes up?”
It'll be on Instagram Live at @johnlegend. Requests will be accepted. And let me know which other artists I should pass the torch to

As if you needed another reason to tune in, Legend’s wife, the endlessly hilarious Chrissy Teigen, will of course be there too. (Legend has already floated the idea of making the concert a “robe party.”)
Chrissy Teigen has confirmed that she too will be there. Who knows what awesomeness and hilarity will come from her presence!? Tune in to my Instagram Live at 1pm pacific/4pm eastern/do the math for the other time zones please. See you soon! https://t.co/phAvzDKxPC

Hopefully, another musician will pick up the torch next, and we’ll have ourselves a chain of concerts to look forward to each day or week in the midst of these very trying times. Jhene Aiko has already volunteered, and requests from Twitter users for subsequent performers in the #TogetherAtHome series include Ed Sheeran, Justin Bieber and of course, Beyonce.
