Fusion Fighters are hoping the singer will notice them after it was announced he was looking for Irish dancers for a music video.

Ed Sheeran made a rather epic return music after taking a short break. The singer release two incredible tracks that became instant hits.

As if we didn’t love him enough, he announced that he has a song on the album about Galway, aptly titled Galway Girl.

What’s more exciting is that he mentioned he was looking for Irish dancers to be part of the video.

This is what encouraged Fusion Fighters, a progressive dance crew, to put together a video showcasing their talent.

”The public announcement by Ed has sent the Irish Dance World into pandemonium as everyone knows this is a one in a lifetime opportunity for whoever the lucky dancers are that will be picked to work with one of the biggest music stars on the planet.” Chris Naish, Artistic Director of Fusion Fighters said.

Though it hasn’t yet been stated whether Ed and his team with opt for a large dance company or individual dancers, this dance crew are eager to get noticed with their #Step4Sheeran campaign.

”I managed to get together some of the best dancers in our Irish dance community to take on this project at short notice (24 hours) and I’m really happy with the outcome.” Chris said.

Videos were submitted by dancers worldwide after Fusion Fighters got in contact with some of the worlds best dancers to make a compilation video.

The video features current World Champions, leading show stars and members of the Fusion Fighters Crew all dancing along to Ed’s massive new hit Castles on the Hill.
