Singer / Songwriter / ‘hippie chic cowgirl’ Templeton Thompson teamed up with Hay Chix to perform her song ‘girls & horses’ with Caitie Holtzman and her horses at Road To The Horse at the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington, KY. Templeton’s performance at the event was SPONSORED by HAY CHIX.
“We met the INCREDIBLE Hay Chix at Road To The Horse IN Lexington TEN years ago! They were kind enough to give us some of their innovative, Best Slow Feed Hay Nets on the Market and we’ve been using their products for our horses ever since. We LOVE them & their INCREDIBLE products! It made my heart & soul SO HAPPY to perform our song ‘girls & horses’ while Caitie Holtzman & her beloved horses showed the audience the magical relationship between horses & humans, that kind of connection is SO VERY special. I’m SO AMAZED by our beloved horses, our Jane & our Beau, they heal me, teach me & lift me UP every moment of EVERYDAY! I always say that Music & Horses make the world smaller, HORSES & all 4~leggeds, make it BETTER!!” – Templeton Thompson
And speaking of Music, over the past few years, Nashville-based Thompson and her husband / producer / songwriter partner, Sam Gay have ridden a wave of success on Australian Country Radio with 12 singles, including 10 #1s. The couple inked a sub-publishing agreement with ORiGiN Music Publishing in Sydney, Australia last Spring for their Connected at the Hit Songs and BoatPony Music catalogs. And just last Wednesday 3/29, Templeton & Sam CELEBRATED a BIG MUSIC MILESTONE WIN for themselves & The French Family Band, from New Zealand & Australia.
“The French’s made their Grand Ole Opry DEBUT last week & me & my man Sam were there! They had the ONLY standing ovation of the night! They performed 3 songs & one of those songs, their recently released Single, ‘1945,’ is a song me & my man Sam co-wrote with Stuie & Sonny French! This is the first song we’ve been part of that’s been performed on the Grand Ole Opry stage!! We are over the moon & SO VERY GRATEFUL to our French FAMILY! We had SO MUCH FUN writing with Stuie, Sonny & Camille French via Zoom during the pandemic…we wrote ‘1945’ with Stuie & Sonny in May of 2020, it’s a reminder that just like with working with horses, to get that magical relationship with them that we as humans dream of & strive for, it takes the time it takes in anything you’re working with all of your heart & soul to accomplish. It’s all still sinking in, I am SO GRATEFUL & SO EXCITED!! Please don’t ever forget to DREAM BIG, WORK HARD & HAVE FAITH y’all, ‘cause you know what? DREAMS REALLY DO COME TRUE!!” – Templeton Thompson
In addition to their hits in Australia, Thompson’s and Gay’s songs have been recorded by the likes of Reba McEntire, Little Texas, Montgomery Gentry, Ricky Van Shelton and Jo Dee Messina, among others. Individually and collectively, their songs have been used in such films as Dr. Dolittle 3 and the Lifetime Christmas movie, Every Other Holiday. Gay also wrote and produced the soundtrack for the film, Dogs On The Inside. Sam and Templeton are also the music behind Cindy Meehl’s 7 Clinics with Buck Brannaman DVD series. Templeton has released two Singles from her current album ‘Get Back Up’ and will be releasing the full album on all streaming platforms this month. Templeton and Sam are actively creating new Horses & Music content on their YouTube channel: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLlIRk3fzkLyifP_VUmgztTkza5umiErcn
“Templeton Thompson – love the name. It sounds like the moniker of a star. And, happily, her zesty vocal sounds star-like, too…The catches and breaks in her soprano are as ear-catching as her lilting melodies.” – Robert K. Oermann, MusicRow Magazine
