Tolu Makay is on course to make her first appearance on the Official Irish Singles Chart with her cover of The Saw Doctors' N17 with the RTÉ Concert Orchestra.
Nigerian-Irish singer-songwriter Tolu was joined by the orchestra as part of RTÉ One's New Year's Eve TV coverage, the performance praised by the likes of Graham Norton for its poignancy.
Following the response to the broadcast, Tolu released the recording as an official single last Tuesday (Jan. 19) via Rubyworks, and now it is set for chart success.
