Steve Thompson

Hello, I'm Steve Thompson. Thank you for visiting my website. Everything on this website is listed on the Whats New (click here) page.

A good songwriter is a storyteller. I'm always telling yarns and anecdotes and people say I should write a book. No thanks, but this site will be my book. There are all sorts of stories and musings here and not all of them music related.

So what's happening right now? -

I recently signed an exclusive deal with Kobalt Music to represent my copyrights Internationally.

New multi media DVD available. Click here for details.

NEW ! A project to build a donloadable set of songs with lyrics and chord charts for Folk Singers - Click Here.

As a producer:

I assisted the early work of........

These days I've been diversifying quite a bit doing musicals and exhibition projects with experimental stuff. I also produce specially commissioned music for commercials, video, animations and computer games as well ocassional demos for other writers. In recent years I have also begun to produce all forms of media including video, CD ROM web media and websites.
