Sir Richard Bishop, discreet music legend and Sun City Girls (1979-2007) founder was a refreshing appearance at Hard Club. For about an hour, Bishop granted the audience with a dyed and preservers free performance, during which, bend over his electric guitar, with elegant virtuousism he painted wide and poetically beautiful sound landscapes.
Dislocated from a certain musical convencionalism anchored in a black (blues) and white (country) dialetic Sir Richard Bishop interpreted works imbued with varied inheritances – from folk to flameng – that truly shape Uncle Sam’s country, offering an unforgettable moment to all that had the previledge of listening to him.
