About Richard Thompson
For the last five decades, Richard Thompson has helped redefine folk rock with his masterful songwriting and guitar work. A founding member of Fairport Convention, he later earned acclaim for his duo work with Linda Thompson, before embarking on a solo career. Named one of Rolling Stone’s 100 Greatest Guitarists, he’s been covered by artists ranging from R.E.M. to Bonnie Raitt, and honored with the Ivor Novello Award. His latest album, Ship to Shore, blends British folk roots with jazz, country, and rock, proving that he is still, and always, evolving.
