Andrew unleashes his eagerly anticipated album 'Im Not Likely To Change' on Lewis Recordings 12th January 2009.
Available on CD and download, it features the classic singles 'We're In Business' (the robot song), 'There Must Be Some Kind Of Misunderstanding', 'Act Together' and the sing-a-long favourite 'In This Town'.
The album features Tyler and Lee from Clap Your Hands Say Yeah on bass and guitar, as well as an orchestra and brass section. There is of course plenty of Andrew's trademark vintage synths.
'I'm Not Likely To Change' is classic pop from a writer and arranger who is in a class of his own.
About Andrew
Armed with a DMX drum machine, a kazoo, a Wurlitzer, some junky synthesizers, tubas, trombones, a robot, and a broke-ass piano, Mr. Thompson sings tales of the absurd and the everyday. Oh yeah - and the boy can sing.
He seamlessly mixes a diverse palette of influences that include ELO, De La Soul and the legendary Muppet Show pit band - Electric Mayhem - into material that is familiar, yet impossible to pin down.
Catch him if you can!

Hi, I'm pleased to announce that "Toughts of Rabbits Are Rabbits" album is finally OUT and it's available on iTunes at a very special price. Just click on the image here below to be redirected on iTunes:
I'm super excited to see you're coming out with an album. I saw you're stuff first on Youtube, and I thought, wow, here's some music I can totally get into :)
I've always loved 'Hold On'. It has become a staple of my nights out I will put on 'hold on' three consecutive times on the jukebox at the bar when it is nearing last call. I'll listen to the first one, people are OK with it, some sing, and then I will wait until the second one comes on and I start laughing and then I leave as I watch the horror on everyone faces!
