《断背山》里清亮而明澈的民谣男声,出身于音乐世家.父亲是大名鼎鼎的Richard Thompson,母亲年轻时当选过田纳西小姐,还是David Foster的老婆,发过好多张的民谣专辑.原来Teddy也不是全没来头的,而他的音乐天赋也应该源自家庭的熏陶吧.他成名前更在Rufus Wainwright的多张专辑里做过合音和Guitar的演奏．更在多张原声，比如我最爱的＜Phycho＞里献声.泰迪汤普森1976年出生在伦敦。他是卡米拉汤普森的兄弟。在18岁的时候，泰迪移至洛杉矶继续他的音乐生涯，20世纪90年代作为一名歌手和吉他手在他的父亲理查德的乐队工作。从那时起，他似乎至少出了3 张专辑：你呢？我呢？我们？ ，现场专辑Celtschmerz （ 1998年） ，和模拟铎（ 1999年） 。早在1993年他大量出现在他父亲乐队的录像中，包括在BBC的朱荷兰表演。作为的传奇 Richard Thompson 和 Linda Thompson 的儿子，Teddy Thompson 在他年幼时就走出了自己的音乐道路，在他青少年时期，他成立了第一支自己的乐队。2000年，Teddy 首次发行了他的同名独唱，同时，他还在父亲的乐队贡献了有限的力量，为父亲的专辑 《You? Me? Us?》和《 Mock Tudor》献声并演奏吉他。后来 Teddy 还制作了他母亲 2002 年的专辑 《Fashionably Late》，还在Rosanne Cash 的乐队待了一段时间。听他的音乐就象在夏日午后的山谷里,迎面吹来一阵轻风.........The only son of British folk-rock legends Richard & Linda Thompson, Teddy Thompson was born in 1976, during his parents' time living in a Muslim community outside of London. He first came to the musical public eye in 1996 when he turned up on his father's you? me? us? album, contributing backing vocals. He eventually opened for Richard on a number of solo dates following the record's release, as well as adding guitar and supporting vocals on 1999's Mock Tudor and the subsequent tour. A live, mail-order-only disc of Richard's 1998 solo acoustic shows featured Teddy teaming with him on a handful of tunes, including Richard & Linda's classic "A Heart Needs a Home," the Left Banke's "She May Call You Up Tonight," and a wonderful version of "Persuasion," co-written by Richard and Tim Finn. In the summer of 2000, Teddy released his self-titled debut for Virgin Records. The album is a collection of self-penned folk-pop tunes produced by singer/songwriter Joe Henry and featuring Richard's guitar on several tracks. Separate Ways arrived on the Verve Forecast label in February 2006, followed by 2007's Upfront & Down Low and 2008's Piece of What You Need.
