Once again, the Naperville community will be treated to a performance by a multi-platinum, Grammy-nominated music act. International Country music superstars Thompson Square will bring their talents to North Central College’s Pfeiffer Hall on Sat., Jan. 21.
Made up of husband-and-wife duo Keifer (38) and Shawna Thompson (40), Thompson Square has topped the charts in the U.S., Canada, and Australia. Aside from their three #1 hits, they have six Top 20 hits, seven mainstream industry awards, and over 25 award nominations. They have appeared on variety television programs like The Tonight Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live, Conan, and CBS This Morning, and have landed in print publications such as Elle, Glamour, People, Rolling Stone, USA Today. And now, Thompson Square is featured in Positively Naperville as they prepare to wow their Naperville fans.
The married duo recently returned to touring and are adjusting to life on the road with 12-month-old son, Rigney Cooper Thompson. The couple was married for 17 years before having their son last January.
“It was the scariest thing we have ever experienced during the first three weeks,” the couple says.
“We were like ‘I can’t’ believe that they let us take him home. We have no idea what we’re doing.’ After the sleep-deprived-almost-killing-each-other phase was over and we realized that he was probably going to be okay and it wasn’t an impossible feat, we starting enjoying our new life.”
The Stoney Creek Records’ act is currently working on their third studio album. They recently premiered the lead single, “You Make It Look So Good,” and I would bet it will be included in the Pfeiffer Hall setlist.
Don’’t miss it!!
