Michael Thompson is proof that dreams do come true. The native New York guitarist knew at an early age that music was in his blood and he set his sights on becoming an elite session player. Having studied at Berklee with the likes of Pat Metheney, he eventually made his way to L.A. to pursue his dream at being an A-list studio musician. He quickly landed tours with Joe Cocker and Cher before breaking into the L.A. studio scene. Word spread about his talent and he’s now recorded and performed for many big names in the music industry, such as Stewart Copeland, Stanley Clarke, David Foster, Phil Collins, Rod Stewart, Michael Jackson, Babyface, Quincy Jones, Mutt Lange, and so many more - not to mention forming his own band, the Michael Thompson band in 1989, who recently released a brand new studio album “Love & Beyond”. Inside MusiCast is pleased to welcome, Michael Thompson.
