The Fureys & Davey Arthur are responsible for some of the most stirring music ever to capture the public imagination.

They encouraged their sons to play music from a very early age and there was live traditional music in their house almost nightly.
Over the years some of their greatest admirers have ranged from the neighbours they grew up with in Ballyfermot to the top sports people and politicians of the world and have performed for leaders such as former Australian Prime Minister John Howard, Irish President Mary McAleese and Pope John Paul. Tony Blair has publicly stated that his favourite peace song of all time is the Fureys “Green Fields of France”.
