Teddy Thompson chats to ilikemusic.com

ILM: What's your current favourite song to play live and your favourite live experience seeing someone else play?

TEDDY: At the moment I think it's Separate Ways.

The one that springs to mind the most is the most recent one, we saw Radiohead in Paris a few years ago, and they had their own tent they were touring with and had put it up in a parking lot and played different places every night, so they were effectively travelling with their own venue. It was an amazing show, the biggest show I'd ever been to.

ILM: The new single features backing vocals of Rufus and Martha Wainwright, who also appear on Shine So Bright. How did you that come about and how was it working together?

TEDDY: We've been friends for a while and I've worked with Rufus lots of times, and we all live in New York as well, so it's quite easy to just get them to come down. It's very nice to have people, contemporaries and friends who do what you do and respect it, so it's good to do stuff together. So it was great and they're both really good singers, so easy to work with and it's quite inspiring to have really good people coming in.
