Starting next week, Spotify will be hosting virtual concerts for those of us who really miss watching performances with other people. The shows are all prerecorded, but they will only play at a certain time so that you know a bunch of other people are watching at the same time as you. It’s about as close as we can get to going to concerts together safely in the pandemic era.
There are five concerts scheduled right now, by artists including The Black Keys, Leon Bridges and Jack Antonoff of Bleachers. Tickets are $15 each, and you must have a Spotify account in order to purchase a ticket. The shows can only be viewed at a specific time, so you’ll have to make sure you select the right time zone when buying your ticket. Spotify has more information on its FAQ page.
