Stephen Bishop, a songwriter since the age of thirteen, left his home in San Diego for Los Angeles at seventeen. He got a job as a staff songwriter at E.H. Morris Publishing for fifty dollars a week. Years later, this veteran songwriter has had his songs recorded by Eric Clapton, Phil Collins, Art Garfunkel, Barbra Streisand, Kenny Loggins, Beyonce, Pavarotti, David Crosby and many others. Over the years, film fans have long treasured Bishop’s appearances in pictures such as Kentucky Fried Movie, The Blues Brothers, Twilight Zone: The Movie and, of course, his legendary cameo as the “Charming Guy with Guitar” in National Lampoon’s Animal House, which he did the theme to. In addition to “Separate Lives” from the movie White Nights, he’s contributed songs for other films, such as Tootsie, The China Syndrome, Roadie, Mickie & Maude and Unfaithfully Yours, among others.
Stephen is a two-time Grammy nominated recording artist and Oscar nominated singer-songwriter. His hits include, “On and On,” “It Might Be You” (the theme from Tootsie), “Separate Lives,” “Save it For A Rainy Day” and more.
In total Stephen has written 650+ songs, released 19 albums, sold over 15+ million records worldwide for himself and 100+ million for other singer-songwriters. His music has been streamed over 500+ million times.
Known as Luke Duke from, “The Dukes of Hazzard.” All it takes is a phrase or two from Tom Wopat’s warm, engaging baritone to trigger the desire to hear more. And the more one listens, the better it gets — from the way he finds the heart of a song’s story to his lyrical phrasing and his gently swinging, jazz-infused rhythms.
Tom may be best known for his starring role in the ’80s hit television series The Dukes of Hazzard. But his versatility was there from the beginning, and on full display in a career reaching from his television work of the ‘70s and ‘80s to high visibility Broadway roles in 1999’s Annie Get Your Gun and 2008’s Catered Affair (he received Tony Award nominations for both), as well as Chicago, Forty-Second St., Sondheim on Sondheim and more.

Life’s A Bish Records is the independent label founded by legendary singer-songwriter Stephen Bishop. Born from a desire to create a better path for the next generation of artists. With a career that’s spanned five decades, Stephen has released albums on nearly every major label in the industry. But after pouring six figures of his own money into his final album, THIMK, and turning down offers from major labels that demanded control of his masters, he decided it was time to rewrite the rules.
Life’s A Bish Records is about ownership, integrity, and artistic freedom. The label’s name is a nod to Stephen’s longtime nickname “Bish” and reflects both his sense of humor and his passion for discovering new talent. Now, with nothing left to prove and everything to give, Stephen is using his experience and resources to support emerging artists on their own terms—empowering them to keep what they create and stay true to their vision.
This isn’t just a record label—it’s a legacy.
