De Luce Brera / Davy Spillane was born in Dublin in 1959, were he completed his entire education in the Irish language, and while at school learnt the tin whistle and uilleann pipes. Although there is no tradition of playing Irish music in his family, Davy was constantly exposed to music and as a piper he was both influenced and inspired by masters of uilleann piping Seamus Ennis, Leo Rowsome and Johnny Doran. Davy also feels that his music was shaped by both the Keenan and Furey families and by his playing with musicians like Liam Weldon, Tommy Peoples and Johnny Keenan.

At the age of eighteen he appeared in a BFT film called 'The Traveller' in which he played a lead role in a story about a travelling band of Gypsies. Shortly afterwards he teamed up with Christy Moore, Donal Lunny and others to form one of Ireland's most influential groups Moving Hearts.

Following the demise of Moving Hearts, Davy was much in demand as a session musician appearing on albums by, Kate Bush, Van Morrison, Elvis Costello, Enya, Steve Winwood and Chris Rea. Such was the unmistakable power of Davy's playing, that even dance sensation 'London Beat' wanted his unique sound on their recordings. Davy signed a multi album deal with Tara and went on to record four albums, 'Atlantic Bridge', 'Out Of The Air', 'Shadow Hunter' and 'Pipedreams'. He is also the featured soloist, together with Andy Irvine, on the album East Wind and a soloist on The Seville Suite composed by Bill Whelan. Both of these albums were produced by Bill Whelan and were influential forerunners to his hugely successful recording of Riverdance which also features Davy Spillane.
During his time with Tara, Davy assembled a core band of some of Ireland's finest musicians including Anthony Drennan on guitar, James Delaney on keyboards, Tony Molloy on bass and Paul Moran on drums and percussion. As well as playing on the recordings they were a formidable touring outfit, receiving massive acclaim from promoters, audiences and critics alike for their performances at concert halls and festivals throughout the UK and Europe.
