Sir Richard Bishop is an American composer, guitarist and singer best known as a founding member of experimental rock Sun City Girls, who during their 26 years (1981–2007), produced an extensive discography of over 50 full length albums. He has toured with Will Oldham, Animal Collective, Bill Callahan, and many others. His solo work,  along with his band Rangda, has released several albums on Drag City and other labels such as 2182 Recording Co., Southern Lord, Southern, Locust, Unrock, VDSQ, and Revenant Records.  

Descending Pharaohs are an ethno-psych project, vibing fight scenes of near-eastern films and guided by Arabic/Anatolian electric, spiritual jazz, and heavy psych.  Live, they are accompanied by a backdrop film collage that matches their heady Middle Eastern sounds made by the oud, saz, baglama, guitar, bass and drum kit.
