Declared by Rolling Stone as one of the Top 20 Guitarists Of All Time and considered one of the UK's most outstanding songwriters, musician Richard Thompson returns with a brand new, guitar driven record titled Electric for Proper Records on Monday, February 11th. Richard's Electric Trio will be taking to the road for a major UK tour on Wednesday February 20th and will tour the USA starting in March.
Recipient of a BBC Lifetime Achievement Award, Mojo's Les Paul Award and curator of the prestigious Meltdown Festival at the Southbank in 2010, Thompson was most recently honoured with a Lifetime Achievement Award for Songwriting by the Americana Music Association. Thompson says of his fellow trio members: "Michael Jerome has been with me for about 12 years. He's actually from Texas; he is a great musician, able to respond to anything that's put in front of him. Taras Prodaniuk worked a lot with Dwight Yoakam, and more recently with Lucinda Williams. His roots may be in country music, but he's another extremely gifted and versatile musician."
