The Donald Thompson Band
Welcome:

The Donald Thompson Band, from Kinston, NC, delivers rousing versions of classic and original, blues and vintage rhythm & blues tunes, entertaining and delighting audiences of all ages wherever they go. The band’s colorful stage attire harkens back to the 'cool threads' worn by the artists of the 1930s and '40s. Couple this look with dynamic vocals, hot guitars, wailing harmonica, and in-the-groove drumming, and you’ve got a treat for both eyes and ears. Fans often comment on the band’s energy and the good-time feeling they emit. So come see and hear them for yourself. You won't be able to keep your toes from tapping!
