Featuring 500+ artists, including Grammy & Juno winners, it offers songs of joy, hope, and social justice. Initially engaging those who were feeling lonely and isolated due to the pandemic, the program lifts the spirits of anyone who is feeling low by engaging them in song, imbuing them with "vitamin H for Harmony" as one artist said, and providing a means for them to connect with others. Tune in live at noon ET on Zoom (carpediemarts.org/daily-antidote-of-song) or watch past sessions on YouTube (youtube.com/@DailyAntidoteofSong).
