Willie Nelson may not be on the road again for quite some time as the coronavirus keeps most people cooped-up at home.

So if you can't come to the concert, then Willie will bring it into your home.

Nelson announced on his Facebook page that he has organized ‘Til Further Notice, a free live-streaming event taking the place of what would've been this year’s Luck Reunion taking place in Luck. It was scheduled to start today.

"This is a hard time for our industry and fellow artists, so we’re banding together to give the fans a show and rally support around our community - all from our respective quarantine locations, " Willie posted on his Facebook page.

The livestream concert, hosted by Asleep at the Wheel's Ray Benson, airs today, March 19 from 6 to 11 p.m.

The lineup features about two-dozen acts, including Paul Simon and Edie Brickell, Lucinda Williams, Jewel, and of course, Willie Nelson.

While the majority of the acts will be performing and recording from living rooms, bedrooms, or home studios, a small number of local acts are slated to (safely) broadcast from Austin’s premier recording facility, Arlyn Studios, according to a news release.

You can access the stream via Facebook, and Twitch.TV.
