Quarantunes Concert Raises Money and Lifts Spirits

With the COVID-19 pandemic on top of everyone’s minds, kids can get a distraction with some good tunes.

The Quarantunes online concert is a collaboration between dozens of musicians to give families some hope in these difficult times. Put together by Alastair Moock, the YouTube playlist features Grammy Award-winners, family musicians, folk artists, and even some pretty talented kids.

Kids can dance along to songs from Moock, Sol y Canto, David Roth, Marcy Marxer, and more in the more than two-hour playlist. The “concert” is a benefit to raise money for the United Way COVID-19 Family Support Fund, a resource that provides assistance to families who have been hit hard by the pandemic.

Families ready to get their feet grooving for a good cause can find Quarantunes on YouTube.
