Improvised music, organized chaos, embracing the moment. Shiroishi Lion Meanstreetz will be playing at Trade School on Saturday, April 25, 2026 in Altadena, CA with other amazing trios. It’s their record release on Daft Alliance. Art by Jason Cheung. Gonna be a cool evening.
New Release Announcement

DA236 SHIROISHI/LION/MEANSTREETZ
Live at Silverlake Lounge
Recorded live on 01/28/26 at the Silverlake Lounge in Los Angeles, this recording of Patrick Shiroishi (saxophones), Mike Meanstreetz (drums), and Adam Lion (vibraphone) captures the trio's chemistry as they meet for the second time. As intentional spontaneity is explored, emergent processes appear gradually to create a constellation of unique sonic environments impossible to recreate. This performance displays a blend (and sometimes clash) of idiosyncrasies, representing a flourishing LA improvising scene bursting with urgency, passion, and diversity.
We're making some cds, we'll be making some tapes, and we'll be sharing the digital album through Bandcamp. Preorder CDs with digital download codes, a cool sticker, and free shipping! Editions will be limited.

In 2026 I will attempt to minimize my use of social media, and use of apps in general. I vow to read more books, go to more shows and galleries, and to buy more physical media directly from artists.
I will check in occasionally to post and check messages. The best way to reach DA for now is through email- [email protected]
We are working on some really exciting new releases including new music from Love of the Farthest (Ryan Unks of Human Quena Orchestra) and "Vanity Bonfire" a killer mixtape being curated by Mackenzie Kourie. We're also working on two new shows to be announced in the very near future.
CHEERS TO ANOTHER WEIRD YEAR!

GERONIMO - MOTHER EARTH FATHER SKY
DIGITAL / GOLDEN-HOUR-COLORED 12" LP
SONG: Geronimo "Recess"
It is with great honor that I announce the release of Geronimo's "Mother Earth Father Sky" LP
As a long-time fan of Geronimo, I'm over the moon with this release. It is a very handsome record, both in sound and visually.
The band and I have decided to limit the digital release to just Bandcamp for the time being. That may change as new platforms are discovered. I encourage buying the vinyl (comes with digital download).
You can buy a copy though our website, our Bandcamp page, or by directly messaging me right here.
----------
Notably Mother Earth Father Sky is only Geronimo’s tertiary studio full-length release in 21 years. Like the first two, MEFS is a scathing teardown of Western Culture, not that it needs any help at this point.
As with their first two releases, available through the @threeoneg label, MEFS leads with an epic: “Canons of Western Civilization” is performed by an ensemble of 11 players, featuring Jorge Martin of Sleestak & Spastic Colon, Caxo & Joe Galarza of Aztlan Underground / Unearthed, the incomparable Ego Plum, & Grammy-winning multi-instrumentalist Ulises Bella of Ozomatli, all of whom deftly forge the moving parts into the last music on Earth.
After recovery, three vital tracks follow—featuring Usen Gandara (Sleestak) & Carlos Zepeda (Slowrider & Echo Park)—which hammer a relentless mechanized violence-made music familiar to anyone with tympanic scarring from braving the unique racket contained in the first two Geronimo efforts.
Vinyl order includes digital download code!
