The label is best known for its affiliation with Alan Bishop—one of the three musicians that composed the legendary outsider trio Sun City Girls—who founded the label along with Hisham Mayet. The Sun City Girls, composed of Bishop and his brother Richard along with the late Charles Gocher, gained a considerable cult following with their prolific, eclectic output that runs the gamut from folk revival and psychedelic to noise, drone, and experimental world music. While Sublime Frequencies never released an SCG album, the parallels between the band?...
