William John Titus Bishop

Born in London, William 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.

From London, he moved to Brighton, learning 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 University of York and Sussex.

William has nominated Audio Active to benefit from 50% of the William John Titus Bishop T.Shirt collection sales. Audio Active is a music charity that's been running for over 20 years, providing equipment, workshops, gigs and opportunities for young people and young artists all over Sussex.
