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 a duet with his son.

Ein Zug fährt durch die Nacht (500 miles),
Sag mir wo die Blumen sind (Where have all the flowers gone)
and
Weit so weit (Can't help falling in love with you).

To this day, Art Garfunkel and Art Garfunkel Jr. have a close bond and they are in close, almost daily communication.
​
Art Jr. Even in adulthood, although he lives in New York and also works as a singer, he enjoys and often appears on stage with his father.
​
The son also visits his father/family in New York as often as he can
(several times a year)
In November 2024, Art Garfunkel and Art Garfunkel Jr will release the first ever real father - son album.

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
