“It was so important for our collective to come back together for this very special tribute to an iconic Irish female artist like Sinéad O’Connor, who has had such a huge influence and inspired us all in our own careers. Sinéad paved the way for the rest of us, her legacy will live forever and we want to celebrate her, thank her and raise much needed awareness and funds for Aisling Project.”
