Teddy Thompson is a British folk and rock musician, born on 19 February 1976 in London, England. He comes from a talented musical family, with his parents being well-known performers. Teddy's music is often compared to artists such as Tift Merritt, Ron Sexsmith, and Mary Gauthier. His heartfelt lyrics and soulful melodies have captivated audiences worldwide. With influences ranging from folk to rock, Teddy has carved out his own unique sound that resonates with listeners of all ages.

As the son of *Richard Thompson* and *Linda Thompson*, Teddy grew up surrounded by music. His brother *Kami Thompson* is also a renowned musician, making their family one of the most influential in the industry. Despite coming from such a prestigious background, Teddy has managed to establish himself as an artist in his own right.

With each album release, Teddy continues to showcase his exceptional songwriting skills and powerful vocals. His music effortlessly blends genres and evokes deep emotions in listeners. Whether performing solo or collaborating with other talented musicians, Teddy's performances are always captivating and leave a lasting impression on those who have the pleasure of experiencing them.

“Country music has been inescapable for me, a recurring theme,” says Teddy Thompson. “At the age of 10 or 11, that's the first thing I heard where my ears pricked up and I'm like, 'Oh, this is music? I like this.'”
The simplicity and emotional intensity of classic country – à la Hank Williams, Patsy Cline and George Jones - has been a big part of Thompson's own sound as an artist, which the New York Times called “beautifully finessed” and NPR hailed as “the musical equivalent of an arrow to the heart.”
Back in 2007, he explored his roots with Up Front and Down Low, an album of Nashville golden era favorites. And now he's picked up the thread again. Thompson says, “The pandemic hit and all bets were off, and the question came up, 'What can we do musically just for fun? I said, 'Let's do some country songs.'” Where the earlier record was made with what he calls “an off-the-cuff approach,” his latest release, My Love Of Country goes much deeper.
