DECATUR, Ala. (AP) — With bars, restaurants, performance spaces, concert halls and arenas shuttered due to the coronavirus, musicians, from up-and-coming artists to regional draws to international stars, turned to social media. Performing in front of cellphones and iPads, the artists share songs of hope, strength and encouragement. “Music is essential. Vital. I’m not sure I know of a time when music is as important as it is when there’s suffering and fear,” said Decatur singer-songwriter Tim Tucker.
