<p><strong> </strong>Tours all over the world have been cancelled in the past few days, rescheduled for most, but live music lives on through&#8230; live streaming. Quarantined, many musicians have taken it to social media and started offering mini concerts from their homes. Here is a selection of a few of them you can watch this week.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>TESSA VIOLET</strong> / live on YouTube</h3>



<p>In the midst of an avalanche of concert cancellations, Chicago-born singer-songwriter Tessa Violet decided to announce a tour&#8230; in her bedroom. Official poster, specific dates (mostly Thursdays and Sundays), the <em>Something to Look Forward to</em> Tour started March 13th and will continue on until March 29th. Violet gets dressed up for each show and enjoys counting down with fans on Twitter and Instagram until the start of <a rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="her stream on YouTube (ouverture dans un nouvel onglet)" href="https://www.youtube.com/tessaviolet" target="_blank">her live stream on YouTube</a>, recreating the excitement of attending a real gig. At her show, expect nothing but spontaneity and coziness, a dance break, and a lot of fan interaction. It feels like video chatting with a friend, who also happens to be a musician.</p>



<p>Tessa Violet&#8217;s next video stream will take place on March 19th, at 2:00 am GMT (7:00 pm PST). Past shows are available to (re)watch <a rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="here (ouverture dans un nouvel onglet)" href="https://www.youtube.com/user/meekakitty/videos?view=2&amp;sort=dd&amp;live_view=503&amp;shelf_id=0" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>ONEREPUBLIC</strong> / live on Instagram</h3>



<p>After being exposed to people who tested positive to Covid-19, OneRepublic frontman Ryan Tedder has been in quarantine with fellow band members Brent Kutzle and Tyler Spry for a few days. Tedder, an avid Instagram user, has naturally been documenting bits of their day-to-day activities all along. On Monday, he even began a new tradition of a live broadcast of him cooking dinner while chatting with fans, along with Kutzle and Spry (who all tested negative to the virus, according Tedder). The camaraderie between the musicians is sweet to witness, Tedder breaking into song while preparing a meal is as impressive as entertaining, and the fan interactions can be a gold mine sparking revelations about unreleased (think samples of songs that will soon be out) and officially unannounced projects (future tours and such). On Tuesday, the band followed their own kind of cooking show by a mini concert, with piano, cello and guitar. Taking requests from viewers, they brought out OneRepublic oldies and newer material, and covered some songs Ryan Tedder co-wrote with other artists such as Ed Sheeran&#8217;s <em>Happier</em> (2017).</p>



<p>The trio intends on keeping this recipe-then-live-gig combo going at least until the end of the week. Catch the live streams on <a aria-label="Ryan Tedder (ouverture dans un nouvel onglet)" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.instagram.com/ryantedder/" target="_blank">Ryan Tedder</a>&#8216;s or <a aria-label="OneRepublic (ouverture dans un nouvel onglet)" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.instagram.com/onerepublic/" target="_blank">OneRepublic</a>&#8216;s Instagram starting 1:00 am GMT (6:00 pm PDT) for the cooking portion, and 2:00 am GMT (7:00 pm PDT) for the musical one. They stay available for 24 hours afterwards.</p>

<p>Devine&#8217;s next show will stream on Twitter on March 20th.</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>OH WONDER</strong> / live on Instagram</h3>



<p>This London-based duo are one of those artists who had to cancel shows. On tour in Europe in March, they were only able to play live in the United Kingdom and in France. As measures prohibiting mass gatherings were issued, they went home short of five shows they had to postpone. Their upcoming dates in the United States are in the process of being rescheduled, but for the time being Josephine Vander Gucht and Anthony West have just announced that they will be performing a song from one of their three albums live each night, starting March 18th.</p>



<p>Oh Wonder will be live every evening at 8:00pm GMT (1:00 pm PST).</p>



<blockquote class="twitter-tweet tw-align-center"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">We&#8217;ve been trying to think of ways to stay connected during this weird time, so every night at 8pm GMT for the next 37 days we are going to play a song from one of our three albums on Instagram Live.
