Album Bio:
Canberra musician Dave Bishop is a no frills kind of guy and his debut solo album, Above The Roof, is a testament to this.
His raw, husky vocals don an Aussie accent (as made famous by Missy Higgins) and speak of hearts breaking, dreams yet to be reached and a lifetime waiting. These may be the lyrics of a sensitive guy, but there is definitely no sugar or cotton wool to soften the blow. Dave's words are real, raw and straight to the point.
With this album coming from a strong blues & roots background, Dave names his inspiration as Paul Kelly, John Butler, Bob Dylan, Tom Waits which rings true on track #3, "Dylan Does," as he sings homage to his music idols."
