+Dale Thompson (born 1963) is an American singer, musician, and songwriter. Dale, along with his younger brother Troy, was inspired to form a Christian rock band after seeing a band called [[Asher]] play at a skating rink in Louisville, Kentucky. Thompson brothers formed a few small bands after that. After [[Asher]] broke up, Billy Sutherland of [[Asher]] formed a band called Warrior. When Dale found out that Sutherland was auditioning for a bass player, he tried out and got the position even though he did not know how to play bass. Troy became a roadie and explosive expert for Warrior. Dale played for a little while with Warrior but left for personal reasons in 1983. Sutherland remained friends with the brothers and even played on future projects.
+The Thompson brothers started writing music and recording demos in 1983. At some point in 1983, the Thompson brothers bumped into the ex-drummer of another Christian rock band called Strait Gate named Steve Childers. The three of them decided to form [[matrix_kentucky]]. In 1985, [[matrix_kentucky]] was signed to a record deal and changed their name to [[Bride]] while signing the contract. Between 1986 and 2023, Thompson released 15 studio albums with Bride, along with five solo albums, before disbanding the group, with the brothers remaining the only two original members throughout Bride's career. Thompson and his brother retired Bride in 2013, but reunited in 2018 to release new albums.
 Thompson currently lives in New Zealand and has several musical projects including The World Will Burn, N.O.G., Perpetual Paranoia, Dabster Gentlemen, and Haunted no More.
