An underground, queer folk artist.
Queer twang and tender tunes. Bishop Decker is the artist persona of singer-songwriter Britt Kusserow. Known for lyrics that delve into existential and spiritual themes, Bishop’s sound has drawn comparisons to The Indigo Girls, The Weepies, Soccer Mommy, and Judee Sill. Raised in suburban Indiana as the grandchild of Lutheran missionaries, Bishop began writing songs in the early 2000s—often about Jesus and horses. She spent much of her adolescence attending an Episcopal church, where early experiences of faith were shaped by a growing awareness of the disconnect between the loving God she felt personally and the exclusionary messages received from others while coming out as queer. This tension continues to inform Bishop’s work as both a musician and a therapist, particularly in supporting other queer individuals healing from religious harm. Whether through songwriting or therapy, Bishop explores the intersections of inner healing, divine love, and relational connection—hoping those themes resonate in both their music and their care for others.
