A team from Dublin-based Spectrum Productions led by David Lawless and Jack Quirke supplied a large quantity of Robe moving lights rig for a rumbunctious, sold-out electro-extravaganza gig by popular Irish mix masters, Belters Only, at Dublin’s 3Arena. David and the team have been working with the artists for the last year and designed the floor lighting package for their 2023 festival appearances.
