The team released a launch video which showcases the senior members.

Inspired by their mission statement ‘stories that speak’, it was filmed in the heart of Limerick city, to show their readers that they are out on the ground in full force. 

As always, the Limerick Voice aims to promote homegrown talent, with music from Treaty City artists such as Dylan Flynn and the Dead Poets who are featured in the video.
