    2024/11/08
    Nashville's own guitar virtuoso Sean Thompson shares his eclectic musical odyssey with us as he transcends genres and geographies to become the first non-Californian talent signed to Curation Records. From thrash metal beginnings to his current blend of sounds inspired by the likes of Beachwoods and the California vibe, Sean reveals how the isolation of 2020 catalyzed his journey into songwriting. This episode uncovers his creative process and the serendipitous companionship of his furry friends that kept his spirits high during lockdown's quieter days. With a nod to authenticity and personal storytelling in music, Sean takes us through his roots and the pivotal moments that shaped his artistry. We reminisce about family influences, his early fascination with a gifted guitar, and his teenage years spent in thrall to Metallica. As Sean's musical style evolved, so did his appreciation for diverse genres, thanks to a high school crush who introduced him to Bob Dylan and the world of jazz guitar. These experiences paved the way for an organic fusion of Americana and jazz that defines his unique sound today. Navigating the ever-vibrant Nashville music scene, Sean reflects on the joys and challenges of performing live, from intimate art gallery shows to joint tours with bands like Dan Horn. We explore the strategic intricacies of releasing his upcoming album "Head in the Sand" and the excitement surrounding its singles. Album set to release February of 2025.
