The Thompson Band: Preferred Artist of the Week on Lead Pedal Radio

The Thompson Band is our Preferred Artists this week on Lead Pedal Radio. This family band based in Southern Ontario has been a staple of the music scene for decades. Husband, Father, and Guitarist Danny Thompson has been on the music scene with a number of country albums for over 40 years with many songs such as “Miles and Miles’ directly focused on the trucking industry. Over the years the band has changed members and daughter Danielle has taken over much of the lead singing and writing duties.

The Thompsons With Behind the Wheel

We originally met the Thompsons through a Trucking for a Cure event and through the Women’s Trucking Federation of Canada back in 2009. Since then they have been instrumental in the development of the Lead Pedal Brands and have become good friends.

Tribute Show

The Thompsons offer tribute shows on a regular basis such as the one above for Merle Haggard. Currently they are performing a Wille Nelson Tribute called “On The Road Again” across Southern Ontario. Watch for the Thompsons in your area and listen to their music on Lead Pedal Radio. You can learn more about them on their website and socials.

About Our Preferred Artists and Partners

In addition to their music the partners and artists have helped Lead Pedal Radio develop in other ways such as advice, merchandise, jingles, and more. We appreciate everything they have done to help us succeed and we are doing our best to support them. Thank you for all you’ve done.
