An interview with Mock Bishop

Mock Bishop is made up of scene-lifers who have shared the stage with some pretty heavy hitters in emo and DIY (like Mom Jeans, Microwave, Dikembe, and Oso Oso). The guitar work is angularly flexed talented, the choruses are hooky and witty (especially on EP opener ‘Rose Street’) and their own version of Tiny Moving Parts meets Title Fight yowl harkens to a simpler time in the world without sounding dated. While the EP does in fact encompass almost a decade of stop and start writing from the band members from different time periods, the chemistry of starting something new makes it sound lively and fresh. Described as an album about new starts and letting go of past hurts, Mock Bishop do something unique with this EP: the music itself is the message, proving that starting a new band with friends is sometimes the best remedy for the past. Listen if you need something joyful in your life today.
