The concert footage is scheduled for the bands’ official channels on a weekly basis for fans around the world to enjoy, YouTube announced today. Many of the groups are using this live footage to raise funds and awareness for COVID-19 related causes.

Acts are varied as The National and Genesis are also offering free music as more than a quarter of the world’s population stays at home and the virus death toll climbs to more than 91,000 worldwide.

Radiohead starts April 9 at 5:00 p.m. ET with the first in a series of archived concerts. The opener is a premiere of Dublin - Live From A Tent, recorded in 2000 on the Kid A album tour. Each week, more of the Radiohead Public Archive will be revealed.
