Mark Friday, September 27 in your diary for The Furey's return to The Village Arts Centre - remember their last visit? Probably their best!

The Fureys are in their 36th year on the road, a long time and even longer if we take into consideration that George, Davey and their late brother Paul were playing as The Buskers and Eddie was playing with Finbar for many years prior to the formation of The Fureys & Davey Arthur.

In 1981, The Fureys released their most successful single ‘When You Were Sweet Sixteen’, becoming a worldwide hit, reaching No 14 on the UK Singles Chart, No 1 on the Irish Singles Chart and No 9 on the Australian Singles Chart. ‘The Green Fields of France’ also gave them an Irish No 1, remaining in the singles charts for twenty eight weeks.

Other notable songs include ‘Gallipoli’, ‘The Red Rose Cafe’ and ‘Steal Away’. In 2008 the band celebrated their 30th anniversary.

The Fureys return to The Village Arts Centre on Friday, 27th September. Tickets from The Avondhu office, Fermoy (025-32227), Cotter’s Bar, Kilworth (025-27109), Hyland’s Bookshop, Mitchelstown (025-24528) or call 087-6492514.
