Randy Thompson

The rolling hills and verdant valleys of Virginia's Piedmont region have provided a backdrop for some of our history's most turbulent and formative events and produced an uncommonly rich variety of compelling musical styles and voices, from blues to country to bluegrass and beyond.

It's a heritage that Virginia-based singer/songwriter Randy Thompson intuitively understands and brings vividly to life on his third release, Further On, a work that lovingly embraces the past even as it pulls it – kicking, picking, singing, rocking - all the way into the 21st Century.

With a Virginia bloodline that traces back to the early 1700s, Thompson, who now resides in the small town of Clifton, Virginia, gives new meaning to the term 'roots music.' And like his musical antecedents, he tends to draw inspiration directly from his own experience, creating starkly drawn musical and lyrical pictures.
