]]>Featuring virtual performances by Billie Eilish, the Rolling Stones, Lady Gaga, and SO MANY MORE, this live stream shed a beaming light on frontline healthcare workers and the importance of the WHO. This grand virtual concert, while very informative and focused on the grim situation at hand, reached out in an effort to uplift the public, especially those who are still going to work Every. Single. Day.
And… Lady Gaga was an integral part of the organization process, helping to curate artists and put everything together. The success of the event was astounding, and Global Citizen took to Twitter to show us the true power of #TogetherAtHome.
The Global Citizen website offers information on how to watch, no matter where you live, and also links the WHO website if you want to contribute to their efforts.
There’s also a digital live stream and Spotify playlist including yesterday’s performers, so you can pop them in your ears while you work from home!

These concerts aim to encourage social distancing, ease anxiety and promote global health, but it is so much more than that! It gives fans a peek into the lives of their favorite artists, humanizes them and encourages interaction through live requested songs.
The wide access and interactivity had me wondering if this initiative has the power to forever change the traditional format of a concert. As a 5’2” music fanatic, I’ve been pushed, pummeled and boxed out in every venue imaginable. For me, these big-name concerts could potentially be better when enjoyed from the comfort of my couch.
