  • Description

    In his brand-new album ' Yearbook', RJ combines the feeling of loss and hope, to explore the depths that can be reached within song writing. The album fuses classic song writing with an alternative indie pop sensibility, sweeping from the sun-kissed bliss of the hopeful Feel Alive, through the dark yet enticing Cutting Room Floor, to the intimately beautiful Forest Fires which intertwines voice, guitar, and string quartet. He has created a world around the songs. An App, accessed through QR codes installed into the album artwork, created alongside a friend, invites fans into the songs; through childhood pictures, voice note demos and discussions around the lyrics and their themes.

    UK tour announced including Royal Albert Hall. Print Press support from, The Times, CLASH, The Guardian and Wonderland along with Playlist support for singles preceding the album release including: Wonderland Magazine 'Wonderlist', Square One Magazine 'Release Radar', Spindle Magazine 'Spindle Selects'. Single ' Feel Aline' was featured on Record of the Day in July. " Genuinely for the first time, I've written songs on Yearbook where I've gone 'Oh my God, that's mine! I've surprised myself and I really do love it.' he admits. Now it's everyone else's turn to be surprised by RJ Thompson's ever-expanding world. 'Yearbook' released as a Jewel Case CD.
