In these anxiety-ridden times, where can we turn for comfort? Music, of course! While everyone is more or less trapped in their residences for the foreseeable future, artists like Yo-Yo Ma, Liam Gallagher, Gloria Estefan, Lizzo, and the recovered Rita Wilson have been sharing their musical talents on social media in the hopes that it will provide some entertainment or peace of mind to their fans. This movement has sparked a new genre, which Wilson has aptly named ā€œquarantuning.ā€ Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello performing an acoustic Ed Sheeran cover? A quaranduet. Paramore front woman Haley Williams strumming on her guitar singing ā€œThings She Saidā€ by Kent? A throwback quarantune for your nerve! Wilson making a Spotify playlist for people self-quarantining that includes quite a few songs by Ms. Wilson herself? Not exactly quarantuning, but weā€™ll allow it because she literally had the coronavirus, survived a long quarantine, and came up with the term.

Gloria Estefan wants you to get on your feet, or rather, put on! your! mask!, to do your part to help flatten the curve. ā€œI wanted to contribute something that would put a bit of humor into a very serious situation because thatā€™s what has helped me get through the toughest moments in my life,ā€ she wrote about the catchy five-minute jam. ā€œI hope I make you smile while imparting an important message!ā€
