Colin Dunne Dances the Music | Dublin News

Colin Dunne, famed for Riverdance, is reinventing himself on stage with “For the Record” — a dazzling fusion of traditional Irish music and contemporary dance. Teaming up with Becky Ní Éallaithe and Ultan O’Brien, he’s crafting a live concert experience that feels like a spontaneous trad session, but with choreography that dances to the music itself. Drawing from his experimental past — where footwork became sound and rhythm became movement — Dunne now uses Ableton to turn his taps into musical triggers, blending tech with artistry. He sees himself less as a choreographer and more as a performer, finding joy in the moment rather than the making. The result? A live album-in-progress, born from improvisation and shaped by a team that’s turning raw energy into something intimate, immersive, and utterly unique.
