Davey Arthur is renowned as one of Ireland’s best-loved and most successful musicians with over 40 of his compositions being recorded and performed by some of the world’s finest artists and bands.
Davey has thrilled audiences world-wide with his skill and artistry as a musician and his performances on Tenor Banjo are legendary and have earned him global acclaim throughout his career and a place in the Irish Music Hall of Fame in Dublin, alongside such other illustrious artists as U2, Sinéad O’Connor, The Corrs, The Chieftains and Clannad.
Davey still tours extensively with The Fureys and has done so for over 35 years. He also delights audiences everywhere with his own show, when he is accompanied on stage by his son, Patrick (percussion), Steve Layton (acoustic guitar) and Pete Dunn on bass. They play an exciting mix of folk/Celtic music and song and by popular request, Davey always includes some of The Fureys well-loved songs, such as: "The Red Rose Cafe" and "When you were sweet sixteen". Davey has warmth, charm and a delightful sense of humour and is renowned as a great raconteur with that Irish gift for storytelling.
