On Saturday night (18th April), singers from around the world came together to perform a global broadcast to support frontline healthcare workers and the World Health Organisation.

Led and curated by Lady Gaga, the line-up featured several country music stars including Keith Urban, Kacey Musgraves and Maren Morris, along with the likes of Billie Eilish and her brother Finneas who sang ‘Sunny’ by Bobby Hebb, and Stevie Wonder who paid tribute Bill Withers by performing 'Lean On Me'.

Kacey Musgraves - 'Rainbow'

Fitting with the rainbows that people have been putting in their windows, Kacey Musgraves performed her song 'Rainbow'. She started her performance dedicating it to all of those, "Risking their lives to get us through this crazy time. Thank you. It means so much to me."

Keith Urban - 'Higher Love (Cover)'

Keith Urban performed a cover of Steve Winwood's 1986 song 'Higher Love', famously covered by Whitney Houston in 1990. The song has since been remixed by Norwegian DJ Kygo last year using Whitney's vocals.

Keith's country cover featured him playing the guitar, backed by a drum track.

Maren Morris and Hozier - 'The Bones'

Despite being physically apart, Maren Morris joined Hozier to perform their hit 'The Bones'. 'The Bones' was a Billboard Number 1 in the US in their Adult Top 40, Top Country Songs and Country Airplay charts.

Sheryl Crow - 'Every Day Is A Winding Road'

Sheryl Crow joined the Together at Home performance playing an acoustic guitar, and singing her 1996 hit 'Every Day Is A Winding Road'.

Lady Antebellum - 'What I'm Leaving For'

Hillary, Dave and Charles from Lady Antebellum teamed up from their individual homes to join the online gig. Hillary started the video by thanking all the essential workers saying, "Your tireless and selfless work right now, means so, so much, and we want to dedicate this song to you."

Billy Ray Cyrus - 'Sunshine Girl'

Billy Ray Cyrus also joined the concert thanking everyone for working against the Coronavirus, and dedicated 'Sunshine Girl' to all of the women on the frontline.

"You truly are the sunshine and in this world of darkness, thank you and god bless each and every one of you," he told the viewers.
