Phil Thompson

Phil Thompson is quickly becoming one of the freshest faces in the New Age music circle. His delicate piano compositions and original arrangements awaken the imagination in every way imaginable. Phil's most recent album, "Twelve Songs of Christmas" is a testament to Phil's growth as both artist and performer. These twelve songs are a must have for any Christmas collection and are sure way to get into the holiday spirit. From the soothing flow of Silent Night, to a lively interpretation of Deck the Halls, and the creatively arranged A Medley of Christmas- every song on this album brings a new sound to old favorites. "Opening Act", Phil's debut album of original compositions, continues to gain recognition as an impressive collection of ambient piano songs. Performed across the globe, "Opening Act" has attracted a diverse group of listeners and fans. Each of these twelve compositions reflects a different emotional experience that are captured poignantly in their titles. In addition to his own albums, Phil believes strongly in giving back to the community through his music. Recently, when the 35W Bridge Tragedy happened literally in Phil's backyard, he was moved deeply to do something. Within days, the acclaimed tribute song and video "Final Ride Home" was released as a memorial to the lives lost, and a tribute to the efforts of rescue workers. 100% of the proceeds of this song (available on iTunes and YouTube) go to the Twin Cities Chapter of the Red Cross. To date, "Final Ride Home" has had thousands of downloads, raising both awareness and funds for this tragedy across the globe!
