With all of us spending a lot more time at home and many events being canceled or postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic, tons of artists have turned to livestreams. We want to know, in our new poll below, what music livestream series has kept you going under quarantine?
Have you been getting in the feels with Death Cab For Cutie frontman Ben Gibbard's daily afternoon (at 4:00 p.m. PST) "Live From Home" sets on YouTube or have electro-pop duo SOFI TUKKER's morning dance parties (at 10:00 a.m. PST) DJ sets on Facebook Live been giving you life? Or has Americana power couple Ellie and Drew Holcomb's fun "Kitchen Covers" on YouTube had you singing along as they sing U2, Kacey Musgraves, John Mayer and more?
Perhaps electro-soul crooner James Blake's weekly live piano sets on IGTV (he's done two so far on Mondays), where he sings new music, old faves and covered Billie Eilish, Radiohead and Roberta Flack, got you all up in your feels? Or maybe musician/activist Michael Franti's "Stay At Home Concert Tour," shared daily on his Instagram, has helped you stay inspired and positive. Have you been searching for ways to make your views count for a good cause? Then you are likely feeling CLIF Green Notes' "Playing From Home" IGTV series, which has donated to the MusiCares COVID-19 Relief Fund when fans tune in and brought sets from Julien Baker, Nahko Bear, Trevor Hall and Magic Giant.

Could it be Levi's "5:01 Live" star-studded IGTV performance series that's really hyped you up, as they've brought live music and conversations from Snoop Dogg, Questlove, Burna Boy, Moses Sumney and more? (They've also donated money to the MusiCares Fund and other COVID-19 relief efforts.)
Do you miss the strobe-lit dance floor? If so, is it Desert Hearts Records' daily-ish "DHTv" live-DJ-sets-and-more schedule from Mikey Lion, Marbs, Porky and the rest of the gang (primarily on Twitch) that's gotten you dancing and laughing in your living room? Or is the packed lineup that Mad Decent has brought with their own "Mad Decent Live" Twitch series, featuring DJ sets from Diplo, Major Lazer, Dillion Francis, AlunaGeorge and other powerhouses on the dance label?
Don't forget to let us know where you stand on the best livestream debate in our above poll. Stay safe, stay inside, wash your hands and enjoy all the livestreams!
