The best virtual entertainment this week: The Current's Sounds Like Home fest, 24 Hour Comedy Festival, Jonatha Brooke

Friday-Sunday: Don't feel guilty if you can't afford a virtual tip for this one: The musicians are actually getting paid. Yeah, go figure. This three-day virtual festival is being funded through the Minnesota Legacy Amendment via 89.3 the Current. It will feature at-home performances by many of the Current's eclectic stable of artists as well as buzzing newcomers, including Chastity Brown, Dave Simonett of Trampled by Turtles, Lady Lark, 26 Bats!, Gully Boys, Dwynell Roland, Charlie Parr, Nur-D, Yam Haus, Kiss the Tiger, David Huckfelt, Reina del Cid and P.O.S. The schedule is on the Current's site. (2-7:30 p.m. Fri. & Sat., 10 a.m.-2:30 p.m. Sun., thecurrent.org.)

Friday: Comedy venues are at the forefront of experimentation as they navigate this brave new world of social distancing. Minneapolis' Comedy Corner Underground is part of the trend, presenting stand-up comics live at the club while audiences watch from home over Zoom. Last week, audiences were encouraged to keep the sound unmuted so that their laughter would be a part of the experience. You can get in on the action as the club participates in the 24 Hour Comedy Festival, happening all across the globe. Look for the Zoom link on Facebook, where you'll also find a spot to donate to a good cause. (8 p.m. Fri., facebook.com/comedycornerunderground.)

Mondays: Once a week during the stay-at-home pandemic, the Minneapolis singer-songwriter has been livestreaming a solo concert dubbed "Live from My Kitchen." This week, for Kitchen Covid Concert No. 7, she seemed preoccupied with waltzes and material from her upcoming July album, "The Sweetwater Sessions." She leaves the performance on her Facebook page until the next show. On other days, the brainy Boston-bred Brooke has been posting songs, videos and other treats like her solo jig. (2 p.m. Mon., facebook.com/jonathabrooke.)
