SIR RICHARD BISHOP (SUN CITY GIRLS)
Guitarist and founding member of the band Sun City Girls (1981-2007) released his first solo record (Salvador Kali) in 1998 on John Fahey's esteembed Revenant label under the name Sir Richard Bishop.
"Sir Richard Bishop forces one to alter that hoary cliche to 'jack of all trades, master of...damn near all.' Renowned for his mercurial guitar-playing for 26 years with Seattle ethno-delic legends Sun City Girls, Bishop has wrought a distinguished solo canon as well. He combines soulfulness and advanced technique with a panache that's nearly unrivaled among today's guitarists. Bishop strums spiritual with incantatory ragas, free-folk excursions, crystalline flamenco flourishes, ruddy Appalachian folk, Middle Eastern-tinged fantasias and gypsy arabesques. This eclectacism done with respect and third-eye-dilating filligree; his compositions attain a wistfulness and a psychedelic complexity." - Dave Segal
