Ben Gibbard<\/a> announced that he will livestream performances from his home studio every day for the next few weeks in the wake of the coronavirus<\/a>. Beginning Tuesday, Ben Gibbard: Live From Home<\/a> will go live at 4 p.m. PST via YouTube and Facebook.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know you are all freaked out right now,\u201d the Death Cab for Cutie<\/a> frontman wrote in a letter<\/a>. \u201cI am, too. And while I\u2019m proud that we\u2019re all doing the necessary things at the moment to help flatten the curve, I know it has left us incredibly isolated.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBe it with DCFC, Postal Service, or solo I have always been grateful for the honor you have bestowed upon us by choosing to congregate en masse around our music,\u201d he continued. \u201cSome of you have traveled great distances and\/or shelled out large sums of money to see us play and that has never been lost on me. So in this crazy unprecedented time, I\u2019d like to return my favor by coming to you<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gibbard will take requests from fans and possibly feature a few guests digitally. \u201cIt will assuredly be a little wonky and glitchy but we\u2019re gonna do our best,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

In addition to Gibbard, many artists have turned to livestreaming<\/a> as the pandemic continues to spread across the country. Neil Young, who joined Jim James in a digital rally for Bernie Sanders<\/a> on Monday night, will also perform from home in a Fireside Sessions<\/a> performance series. Many artists\u2019 performances are taking place on Instagram\u2019s live feature, including Keith Urban<\/a> and Coldplay\u2019s Chris Martin, the latter as part of a new series titled Together, at Home. <\/a><\/p>\n
