The Green Fields Of France By The Fureys & Davey Arthur

The Fureys are an Irish male folk band. They also sometimes record as the The Fureys and Davey Arthur.

The group formed in 1978 and consisted initially of four brothers [1]. The band later met Davey Arthur and had their biggest commercial successes working with him.

Prior to the band two of the brothers toured as a duet known simply by their names as Eddie and Finbar Furey. Paul had together with Davey Arthur and Brendan Leeson a band called "The Buskers". Both were part of a very successful tour through Germany first in 1974 called the "Irish Folk Festival", where they perform as "The Furey Brothers" and "The Furey Family". Here they were joined by their father Ted, a famous fiddler, who was 73 at that time.
