Thompson Square

Thompson Square make beautiful music together, both on and offstage. The married duo consisting of Keifer and Shawna Thompson moved to Nashville individually to pursue solo careers, but decided to form a duo after meeting at a local singing competition. They signed with Stoney Creek Records in 2010, releasing their debut single, "Let's Fight," that year. Their second single, "Are You Gonna Kiss Me or Not," became their first No. 1 hit, and they scored subsequent hits with "I Got You" and "Glass." Their second album, 2012's 'Just Feels Good,' landed them another No. 1 with "If I Didn't Have You," and scored another Top 5 hit with "Everything I Shouldn't Be Thinking About." In 2015 they released a new single, "Trans Am," from their forthcoming third album, and also announced that they are expecting their first child.

  • Formed: 2002 in Nashville, Tenn.
  • Top Songs: “Are You Gonna Kiss Me or Not,” “Glass,” “If I Didn’t Have You”
  • Did You Know? They sang backing vocals on Ty Herndon’s 2007 song, “Right About Now.”
