Arthur Jr., the first-born son of Art Garfunkel, was already on stage with his parents when he was a toddler.
​
Art Garfunkel carefully introduced his son to the limelight.
​
Art Jr. sang more and more small parts in The 59th Bridge Song (feeling groovy) when he was on stage with his father.
​
From a young age, Art Garfunkel and his wife took their son to performances.
​
​
In 1997, Daydream - Songs from a parent to a child was released, on which Art Jr. sang a song with his father for the first time: Good luck charm.
In 2021, Art Garfunkel Jr., who has lived in Europe since 2006, released a tribute album to mark his father's 80th birthday:
Like You: Homage to My Father.
Here, Art Garfunkel sings:
The Condor Passes (El Condor Pasa),
...​
To this day, Art Garfunkel and Art Garfunkel Jr. maintain a close bond, and they communicate almost daily.
Even as an adult, Art Jr., although he lives in Europe and also works as a singer there, enjoys performing on stage with his father.
As often as possible, the son also visits his father and his family in New York (several times a year).
In November 2024, Art Garfunkel and Art Garfunkel Jr will release the first ever real father - son album.
It is entitled Father and son.
The album not only takes the listener through different eras of music history through the selection of titles, but the common thread: Father and Son also runs through from beginning to end
