Fin Furey Releases “Glory Days”
A story-telling songwriter, Fin Furey explores a wide range of themes ranging from protest and liberation to dark and difficult love, and comical revelations about chemicals and the way they affect us. Imagine the sonic offspring of Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, The Dubliners, and The Fureys, and you will resonate with Fin's marriage of sound.
In his new single, 'Glory Days' (released Oct 6th), he showcases a variety of textures in his voice, steering away from his velvety-smooth baritone that delivers epic power ballads to the new singalong Indian summer song, showcasing his plaintive vocals soaring in boisterous folk idioms akin to that of the greats that came before him, notably his own father, Finbar Furey of The Fureys legendary Irish Folk Band.
The unique sound of his music is a fusion of folk/blues and cinematic new-age traditional music. Born into a musical family, where the passion for music has been passed down through successive generations, Fin grew up on harmonies and anarchy describing how music “put food on the table and clothing on our backs”.
What we have in Fin Furey is a legacy troubadour and storyteller from one of the most celebrated and beloved folk bands to ever come out of Ireland, The Fureys. Make way for the new generation, and one of the gatekeepers of Irish folk music: Fin Furey.
