The son of British folk-rock luminaries Richard and Linda Thompson, singer/multi-instrumentalist Teddy Thompson began pursuing music at a young age, performing with his father on a number of late-1990s outings. Thompson's self-tilted 2000 debut established the charismatic artist as a pop/rock songwriter of considerable talent, and also featured contributions from Rufus Wainwright, a kindred spirit who would appear with Thompson in many other settings. With his clear, resonant tenor voice, Thompson has proven himself capable of excelling at a wide range of material, even taking on country with his elegant cover album, UPFRONT AND DOWN LOW.

Title NoteWhen he first came on the scene, Teddy Thompson had a lot to prove as the son of British folk-rock godheads Richard and Linda Thompson. By the time of his fourth album, A PIECE OF WHAT YOU NEED, such things were no longer a concern, and the public could absorb his smooth, measured singing and affable mix of pop, rock, and folk on their own merits. There's a bit more upbeat, hook-filled rock here, from the insistent beat and pumping horns of "One of These Days" to an energetic version of the Everly Brothers' "The Price of Love," but there are nevertheless plenty of soft, acoustic, folk-flavored tracks, allowing for just the right dynamic balance.
