As part of our nightly YouTube series celebrating Van Morrison's 75th birthday, Papenfus perform 'Fair Play', and Kenny shares his reflections on Van's music.
Formerly known as Relish, brothers Kenny and Carl recently relaunched as Papenfus. Under their previous moniker the Downpatrick act released a string of acclaimed albums, collaborated with Sinéad O'Connor, and have been championed by the likes of Paul Weller, Brian May and U2's Larry Mullen Jr.
