Richard Bishop is an experimental guitarist whose improvisations and compositions often reflect the shadow worlds of India, the Middle East, North Africa, and other points along the Gypsy trail. 

Richard is a founding member (along with brother Alan Bishop) of legendary ethnic-improv pioneers and underground tricksters Sun City Girls, (1981-2007)  who produced an extensive discography of over 50 full length albums, 20 one-hour cassettes, and a dozen 7” records. In the early 1980s he was also a member of the group Paris 1942 which included Alan Bishop, J. Akkari and former Velvet Underground drummer Moe Tucker. 

Richard released his first solo record in 1998 on John Fahey's Revenant label.

Richard was also a co-founder of the Sublime Frequencies label (with Alan Bishop & Hisham Mayet). The label, whose mission is dedicated to acquiring and releasing obscure sights and sounds from Africa, India, S.E. Asia and beyond, began in 2003 and currently has over 100 releases to its credit (www.sublimefrequencies.com)


"Bishop is a splendid acoustic guitarist with a sure touch and an impressive vocabulary gleaned from the Spanish flamenco and North Indian classical traditions with a bit of Belgian Django Reinhardt's gypsy swing jazz mixed in." - Bill Meyer (Ink Blot Magazine)

"Bishop's music has an austere and pristine quality to it that makes him an absolute pleasure to listen to." - Nick Hennies (Foxy Digitalis)

"In order for guitar music to have value, it must remain new and on the move. There shall be no safe or sacred ground. To take risks and to challenge one's self and one's listeners, is the only way to maintain any worth." - Richard Bishop
