Not limited to purely blues and rock, Thompson has proved to be a truly multidimensional artist, his talents spanning a number of genres including latin, flamenco, classic rock, rockabilly, folk, pop-rock, and classical Indian music.
To this end, he has performed with various artists and groups associated with these genres such as Albert Frost, Guy Buttery, Robin Auld, Dave Goldblum, The Jack Rabbit Slims, Stuart Reece Band, Black and White Dogs, Gitanos De La Duende, and the Four Winds Folk Club, the oldest of its kind in South Africa. This enthusiasm and dedication helped propel him towards his debut as an international blues artist. In 2011, having played guitar for only six years, at the age of 23 Rob completed his first tour of the USA, performing a number of shows across the country as well as touring with acclaimed American blues legend Ray Fuller.
