Dayle Thompson - Bass Guitar & Vocals

Dayle is the latest addition to HRH, joining the band in 2007. ‘The missing link’. As a boy Dayle attended the same school as, and studied music with, Steve Nelson. They apparently spent many a happy hour tinkering on each other's organ.

Not only is Dayle proficient on Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums and Trombone, he can also make rude noises with his hands! Dayle has spent so many years entertaining on Cruise ships that to this day, he still sways when he walks and insists on wearing a life jacket backstage at all times.

2011 update : Dayle is now a married man and a father! He initially struggled to lose the extra weight after the pregnancy but then discovered the ‘Les Paul’ diet. Followers are encouraged to spend all of their money on guitars and so can’t afford to eat!
Dayle’s old clothes are now far too big for him and so he’s taken to wearing Bryan Rock’s cast offs….and his wig!


Until recently Dayle had very long hair. Unfortunately he has had to cut it short for health and safety reasons.
