Info
On May 7, 2027, Richard Thompson lands at The London Palladium in London for a night built around songs that sit right where British folk tradition rubs up against sharp-edged rock and country turns. First known as a key member of Fairport Convention in the late 60s, he quickly moved toward a more personal lane, balancing acoustic storytelling with electric bite and a guitarist’s sense of melody that never feels ornamental.
Expect a set that can swing from intimate ballads to lean, driving numbers, with that trademark writing voice: dark little narratives, dry humor, and characters that feel uncomfortably real. Whether he’s digging into early solo material, nodding to the Linda Thompson years, or pulling from later chapters like Rumor and Sigh, Mock Tudor, Electric or 13 Rivers, the thread stays the same: songs carried by precise playing and a singer who knows exactly when to hold back and when to push.
