Nnic and Dulciana Vocal Ensemble perform 'Pillars' to mark Repeal anniversary
The original version of the song was born out of Nnic's admiration for women.
Nnic has collaborated with Dulciana Vocal Ensemble to perform a special version of her song, 'Pillars', to mark the two-year anniversary of Repeal.
The referendum to Repeal the controversial abortion laws in Ireland took place on this day two years ago, with the country voting by 66.4% to 33.6% to remove the 8th amendment from the Irish Constitution.
With a historic total turnout of 64.5% - the highest of any referendum since 1992 - more than two million votes were cast overall.
Posting the collaboration with Dulciana to Instagram, Nnic wrote:
"To honour the two year anniversary of the Repeal vote, I have collaborated with the amazing Dulciana Vocal Ensemble to create a choral version of my song, 'Pillars'".
"What better way to remember Repeal than an all female quarantine choir!"
Nnic's original 'Pillars' version features powerhouse vocals by its creator - who has over 10 years of classical vocal training under her belt.
When the song was released back in August 2018, Nnic stated that 'Pillars’ was written from a place of admiration and is "a homage to faceless women who selflessly uplift and support others."
