Finbar & Eddie Furey

Finbar & Eddie Furey

Finbar is a flamboyant and forceful uillean piper who won his first all-Ireland championship at the age of 15, while Eddie is a singer and guitarist. They have been members of the Furey Brothers and Davey Arthur, but their most charming recordings are the ones they did as a duo. (AllMusicSignificant. File under: Irish Folkies
