About:

From the day she started her own label Gryphon Records in 2007 singer, multi-instrumentalist and DJ, Bishi has had a busy couple of years. Whether playing Glastonbury with her rock band, underground clubs with a Grime collective or concert halls with The London Symphony Orchestra, her popularity has grown in line with the respect she receives for her recorded and live work.
. Described as the doyenne of hybrid music her critically acclaimed 1st album ‘Nights at the Circus’ seamlessly mixed electronic beats, English folk and Asian instruments with personality and lyrical melody.
The new album ‘One Nation’ sees her return to re-evaluate the music that surrounded her when she first stepped out into the London night.
At just 18 she became well known as the DJ and ‘face’ of London’s notorious cult nightclub Kash Point. The club was an outrageous, creative and subversive playground for many of the artists, musicians and designers who influence the prevailing zeitgeist.
‘It has been encouraging to see those aesthetics become the stuff of the mainstream – however I feel that the current landscape has much of the style but little of the content.’
With this album Bishi touches upon social and political themes that have always motivated her. Topics such as identity, place, nationality and perceptions of freedom – lost and gained - are explored with customary zeal.
Her new sound references and revitalizes elements of IDM, Electro, Grime, Low Fi Punk and Digital Hardcore, giving them new relevance and purpose in a modern pop setting.
