Butch Thompson plays the Fats Waller classic "Ain't Misbehavin'" during a performance in 2012.

Primer stride and ragtime pianist Butch Thompson started his life long journey in music playing Christmas
carols on his mother's piano when he was three.

As a high school senior in his hometown of Marine on St. Croix, Minnesota he led his first jazz band
"Shirt Thompson and His Sleeves" and for a time switched to the clarinet.

Following a brief stint with a local dixieland band Butch made his first trip to New Orleans when he was
eighteen and has since traveled the world performing with jazz bands and symphony orchestras alike.
