Thompson Square has the top spot
Tuesday, April 30, 2013 – Thompson Square has their second number one single. The duo of Kiefer and Shawna Thompson went to number one with If I Didn't Have You.
In 2010, they hit number one with Are You Gonna Kiss Me or Not.
The Thompsons wrote on Facebook, "Hey y'all "IF I DIDN'T HAVE YOU" went #1 yesterday and we just wanted to say thanks to all our fans and friends for all your support and for making this happen. We wrote this song after the passing of Shawna's father Mickey. Now, exactly one year later on his birthday it went #1."
The Thompsons did not say what chart they topped. Last week, they were ninth of the Billboard Country Songs chart with Florida Georgia Line first with Cruise.

TS's second record, 2012's "Just Feels Good," didn't exactly disappoint - it carried two Top 20 singles. Still, it was a bit of a retread and sold less than half of their debut. ...
The ever-so-happily married Keifer and Shawna Thompson, equal halves of the duo Thompson Square, wasted no time taking the world by storm on their debut record. That disc went on to spawn 2011's most-played song on country radio, Are You Gonna Kiss Me Or Not. The curse of the sophomore jinx looms large, and many bands have fallen trying to hammer out a follow-up while navigating newfound stardom. Not, however, these two.
Thompson Square has put together yet another bouncy set of country ...
Real-life couple duets carry an honorable tradition in country music. Who could forget the flirtatious sparring of Carter/Cash, the hard-times love of Jones/Wynette or swooning of Hill/McGraw? But rarely does a married couple enter into a musical partnership quite like Keifer and Shawna Thompson, aka Thompson Square. After two respective solo careers failed to catch fire, the Thompsons are now a full-time personal and professional team with a debut record.
The lead single and hit, Are You ...
