Tim & Myles Thompson are a father-and-son acoustic duo blending original songs, inventive arrangements, and high-level musicianship. Their performances feature guitar, mandolin, fiddle, and harmony vocals, moving seamlessly between high-energy instrumental moments and slow, emotionally resonant songs. Tim is a two-time International Fingerstyle Champion, bringing a rare level of technical command and musical depth to the duo’s sound.
Rooted in rock- and jazz-influenced folk and singer-songwriter traditions, with additional touches of Americana and classic pop, their shows balance intensity with intimacy. The music is paired with dry, understated humor — sometimes warm and family-oriented, sometimes wry and road-worn — creating a listening-room experience that feels both personal and alive.
Individually and together, Tim and Myles have toured with Crystal Gayle, Wynonna & The Big Noise, Aaron Tippin, and Pam Tillis, with Myles also touring with Robben Ford. They have additionally opened for artists such as Three Dog Night, Spyro Gyra, and Don Williams, among many others. That breadth of road experience shows up onstage in confident playing, sharp pacing, and a relaxed command of the room.
Tickets are $25 general admission. Children under 12 are free. Advance tickets are available here, or if the show is not sold out, you may purchase your tickets at the door before the show.
