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. In addition to the Oscar-nominated song “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 Bishop's timeless hits include “On and On,” “Save it for a Rainy Day ” and “It Might Be You." Over the years, his songs have been covered by the likes of Phil Collins , Barbra Streisand , Art Garfunkel , the Four Tops , Davis Crosby , Kenny Loggins – even Luciano Pavarotti . His friend Eric Clapton has been a frequent collaborator, and Slowhand has even called Bishop one of his favorite singer-songwriters. “It’s a wonderful compliment, of course,” Bishop says. “Eric and I go way back to when he played on my first album, Careless , and we wrote a song called ‘Holy Mother’ from my Blueprint album.”
