Teddy Thompson’s latest album, Never Be The Same, digs back into rockier seams for his first album of original material since 2020. With influences ranging from Crowded House and The Beatles to his father Richard Thompson, these songs explore love, change and the passage of time. The album title may speak of flux, but Thompson’s brilliance remains predictably constant throughout.

Faithfully rendered and recorded with a clear affection for the music, ‘My Love of Country’ is another fine feather in Teddy Thompson’s cap and well worthy of a slot in any old-school country fan’s collection.

‘I’ll never write a song as good as Chuck Berry’s Maybellene,’ says Teddy Thompson when introducing these songs…but he comes oh so close, proving once again he is much more than the sum of his lineage.

Featuring the Afro Celts, Teddy Thompson, Eliza Carthy, Green Gartside, Jackie Oates, Marry Waterson, Stealing Sheep, Honeyfeet and lots more, there’s more than enough invention, inspiration and at times outright eccentricity to ensure there’s something that’ll push your instant replay button.

There are big projects, there are gargantuan labours of love, and then there is this. The Self Preservation Society is an ambitious vinyl collection of songs from the late 1960s and early 1970s performed by the likes Eliza Carthy, Teddy Thompson, Marry Waterson and many others.
