Overview
Richard Thompson is a British rock singer-songwriter, born in London in 1949 and active since 1967. The career began in the folk-rock group Fairport Convention, of which Thompson was a founding member. Work with Linda Thompson followed, including the albums I Want to See the Bright Lights Tonight (1974) and Shoot Out the Lights (1982), and the songwriting has continued across a substantial solo catalogue.
Thompson has released work on Island Records. The recordings move between electric guitar-led rock and the folk traditions that shaped the Fairport years, so the material covers both strands of a career that has spanned several decades.
The Glasgow Royal Concert Hall, at 2 Sauchiehall Street, is a concert and performance venue in the city centre. The night suits listeners who follow British singer-songwriter rock, from the early Fairport recordings through to the later solo and duo work.
