Album Of The Week

"The 10 tracks presented here form a stunning collection of modern folk songs. Altogether a beautiful, affecting album."

- Trevor Raggatt / Rock'N'Reel Magazine -

"No efforts were saved to make the 4th solo album, ‘Shakespeare Avenue’, from Australian folk singer songwriter Carus Thompson a real success. With the artistic help of the British Lakeman folk family, in our opinion he has succeeded to make this newest album his very best one created during his 2 decades lasting musical career.“

- Valére Sampermans / Rootstime-

"I think it's like coming home, Carus Thompson and 'Shakespeare Avenue' belong to the UK, in history and in future."

- Marino Serdons / Keys & Chords -

"Australian folk rock songwriter and storyteller Carus Thompson returns to the UK to launch his 7th studio album, 'Shakespeare Avenue'. Recorded in Dartmoor, in the south west of England, with Mercury nominated producer Sean Lakeman, the album takes its name from a street in Bath, Somerset, where Thompson’s late grandfather lived, before he left his home for Australia."
