Биография

Anna Thompson was born to entertain. Sure, loads of kids like to sing, but Anna entertained. When she was small, she fell in love with Disney’s “The Little Mermaid,” and, in particular, the song “Part of Your World.” Around the same time, little Anna got hooked on “American Idol.” When Carrie Underwood won Anna realized that it was indeed possible to be a singer as your grown-up job. “Even though I was 3, I knew this was what I was going to be. And I knew I wasn’t going to change my mind.” When Anna was 16, she was offered a deal and began to work with a major label. While it didn’t end the way Anna hoped, the experience was an invaluable one. “I had the chance to be a sponge and learn everything I could from very talented people. Going to a writing retreat in Seattle in the summer of 2020 was a game-changer. It was there that Anna met “her people” a network of other musicians from the Seattle area. Now confident in her songwriting, Anna feels like now it all clicks for her. In fact, she says her EP, CENTERPIECE, virtually wrote itself. So, what’s next for Anna Thompson? Armed with good songs, confidence, and a great team of people to work with, there’s nothing stopping her. “My biggest goal – if there was one goal I ever had – is to write and record someone’s favorite song. I know how much my favorite songs have affected me – how they’ve lifted me up when I needed it. Even if it’s just five people, I hope I can do that.”
