Bradley Fish (b. Bethesda, Maryland, 1970) is an American born musician based in Israel. He relocated to Israel in 2004, first living in Tel Aviv, and finally settling in Jerusalem. He holds a B.A. degree in guitar from Northern Illinois University, where he studied with jazz guitarist Fareed Haque. Fish's musical loops performed on the Appalachian dulcimer, banjo, German concert zither, and guzheng (Chinese zither) are the most widespread in the world. His guitar loops are among the most widespread . The loops are created by recording the actual playing of the instrument and then slicing riffs with music editing software, and used by modern composers as an enhancement or as a basis for their own music. Fish's loops have been released with Sony Digital Pictures, Peace Love Productions, and Apple/i-Life. Fish pioneered the use of these exotic and folk instruments with electronics in modern musical contexts (rock, reggae, metal, fusion, blues, electronica, modern folk, etc.) recording "The Aquarium Conspiracy" CD with Sugarcubes/Björk drummer Sigtryggur Baldursson in 1996. Fish recently recorded via the Internet with George Clinton/Funkadelic/Snoop Doggy Dog drummer Jerome Bailey. He has pioneered the use of the Internet as a medium for recording tracks of guitars and exotic instruments as well as musical instruction. The Jerusalem Post referred to Fish as a "master guitar teacher."* Fish has toured internationally, performing for many notables including the Dalai Lama. He recently recorded tracks with top name artists in Israel including Rami Kleinstein and Yehuda Poliker. Fish's live shows in Israel have included Yonaton Shapiro of Ofra Haza's final live band.
