About Paul Thompson

I perform the songs of Jake Thackray, Tom Lehrer, Flanders and Swann, Victoria Wood, Tim Minchin, Pete Scott and Neil Hannon, as well as my own material, most of which is satirical.

I have released a solo album, Playing with Nadine, featuring my own writing and eight long-lost songs by Jake Thackray.

I was a collaborator on John Watterson's album, The Lost Will and Testament of Jake Thackray, playing the guitar and writing the tunes for several long-lost songs where only Thackray's words survived. I also co-wrote with comic novelist Alex Marsh all the songs on John Watterson's album The Resurrection of Frédéric Debreu.

I am the co-author of the acclaimed biography, Beware of the Bull - The Enigmatic Genius of Jake Thackray.
