William John Titus Bishop

Bishop performed orchestral works and other musical genres before learning to play the guitar and perform at smaller venues on the London circuit. He was awarded an Ma in English Literature and studied for a PhD under Brian Cummings, fellow of the British Academy. In a breakaway from his stifling classical background, he went on to writing his own songs.

Bishop learned piano from Robin Coward, pianist for Passanger, and Camille Phillips, drummer with the Subways. He then recorded three full-length studio albums and amassed a following of over 1.5 million on social media and his last album gained 4 million Spotify streams in its first week. His music is used on degree courses at The Universities of York and Sussex.
