Bishi, artist and composer
Manage episode 449813074 series 3434602
Bishi is an artist, composer and producer born in London of Bengali heritage. Trained in both Hindustani and Western Classical styles, she has released and composed three albums, several EPs, movie and documentary soundtracks, and tirelessly advocates for the elevation of women, trans, and non-binary creative practitioners in music and technology.
From coming up in London's queer underground in the 90s, Bishi has carved out a career path precisely for herself – to be frank, she is completely bad ass. I first saw her perform many moons ago at Latitude Festival in 2009, and this conversation was a beautiful opportunity to connect with Bishi after she has gone on to achieve so much.
We discuss music by Minty, Missy Elliott, and Kate Bush. Follow Bishi online here.
