Many places in Ireland have a venue that has become engrained in the musical heritage of the area, and for Dubliners that place is Whelan's.
Since 1989, the bar and entertainment complex has established itself as one of the best loved music venues in the world – even Ed Sheeran credits the place for getting him started in the music scene.
Anyone who has been there will tell you that the venue is steeped in musical history. The photos on the wall are testament to the talent, both Irish and overseas, that has stopped by to entertain the Dublin crowds.
As an integral part of Irish culture and society, music, the Other Voices organisers believe, collapses distance in this time of isolation, giving us courage, consolation and bringing people together.
There is nothing finer to tide music fans through the stay home period.
