Thread Name: Fureys in Chicago
Subject: Fureys/Flynnon Chicago
I only recently discovered the Fureys, by listening to FolkScene. I really like their new sound (to me, at least) that gets away from the strings on the early cd that I bought.
I am learning their English version of "Steal Away" as well as Linda Healy's Welsh versioh, "Daw Ein Dydd."
So ---- I was very surprised to see that the Fureys will be in Chicago at the Irish American Cultural Center on 9/13. That will be a busy weekend, since the Celtic Fest will also be going on in Grant Park - with the great Welsh group Flynnon, as well as Jenny Armstrong, Cherish the Ladies et al.
