About

David Arthur Furry, aka "Davy Arturo", is a singer-songwriter-guitarist who lives in the Minneapolis area. Writing songs and playing acoustic guitar since 1972, he is releasing to the world six songs via streaming and a Vimeo Musician Channel. There will be several additional new songs released soon, as soon as I can record them, from my active catalog of over 100 songs. I have a wide variety of original songs, including pop ballads, rock & roll, country tunes, love songs and heartbreak too. And a debut album, untitled at this point, will be ready in the early months of 2024. I hope to have this album available in CD and vinyl format, as well as streaming. Future plans include several guest musicians and singers adding their talents to my new recordings. As the inimitable radio newsman, Paul Harvey, always said on his daily national radio broadcasts, “Stand by for news!”

NOTE: Go to the Video tab above to watch all six of my song videos, NO commercials and NO interruptions! Free of charge, of course! You can also go to Vimeo.com and search for "Davy Arturo" under the “Watch” category! Enjoy! More new music coming soon! DAF
