Paul Richard Furay (; born May 9, 1944) is an American musician, songwriter, and retired pastor. He co-founded Buffalo Springfield, Poco, and the Souther–Hillman–Furay Band, where in all three groups he helped pioneer the country rock genre. His best known song (originally written during his tenure in Buffalo Springfield, but eventually performed by Poco as well) was "Kind Woman," which he wrote for his wife, Nancy.
During his time in the Souther-Hillman-Furay Band, he converted to Christianity. After releasing several Christian albums as a solo artist, Furay became full-time pastor of the Calvary Chapel in Broomfield, Colorado, serving from 1983 to his eventual retirement in 2017.
In 1997, Furay was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of Buffalo Springfield. In 2015, he was inducted into the Colorado Music Hall of Fame as a member of Poco.
