Tyler Thompson, Born in Houma, Louisiana, 1986. Thompson found his way into producing movies in 2008 with his debut movie, Black Swan. He followed up with movies such as RUSH, Black Mass, American Made, Ides of March, Everest, among many more. Most recently, he produced Aaron Sorkin’s The Trial of The Chicago 7. Thompson is in production on his next movie, The Pale Blue Eye with Christian Bale which Netflix will release Fall of 22’.

Thompson, a long time music fan and guitar player had dreamed of always making a record but never could quite get it together. When movies took the poll position, it was put on the shelf indefinitely. Once the pandemic hit, Thompson decided to phone his pal and world renowned drummer and record producer Steve Jordan (Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton, John Mayer). The two decided to put together some songs and make a record in early 2021. Tyler and Will Hoge, a long time musician and respected Nashville artist, put together ten songs. Tyler and Jordan started tracking the songs with Pino Palladino, Derek Trucks, Audley Freed, Larry Campbell and Clifford Carter. There was only really one thing left to mix in...the vocal! Thompson wasn’t a singer, he had never sang before. Thompson knew that he’d never be an amazing singer. Instead, Thompson focused on story- telling. Growing up in Louisiana gave him perspective on simple living and a strong tie to country and rock music (Springsteen, Mellencamp, Black Crowes and Tom Petty). He spent summers building tree houses in the sugar cane fields, riding four wheelers and dirt bikes and fishing down in the Gulf of Mexico.“A lot of country music these days is successful because it’s relatable to folks in America. In a world where it’s very hard to find authenticity, I wanted to create some semblance of it, first for myself, and now I hope people will also feel it on this record. When I set out to make this record I wanted listeners to feel as if you could disconnect from the world a bit and re live their own America at its best and maybe sometimes at its hardest through these songs somehow”. High school break-ups, girls that aint’ coming back, first loves, high school football on Friday nights, your first foam ice chest with a few stolen Coors Lights, & strong mothers and fathers making the best out of whatever situation they are in. Thompson signed a record deal with Sony Music Nashville in 2022. He plans to release his debut self titled album, Tyler Thompson - later this year, under the Sony Nashville Music banner.
