Patrick Shiroishi I Was Too Young To Hear Silence

Fresh off a tour with The Armed, and on the heels of countless releases and collaborations, Patrick Shiroishis music is as vital and stirring as ever on I Was Too Young To Hear Silence. Where his breakout release, 2021s Hidemi, used choruses of saxophones and vocals to memorialize his grandfather, I Was Too Young To Hear Silence expands the scope of his remembrance. Shiroishis chosen instruments are alto saxophone, glockenspiel, and a cavernous parking garage through which the formers melodies reverberate. Its an apt setting for Shiroishis continuing confrontation of the legacy of Japanese concentration camps. 1. stand still like a hummingbird 2. i almost said 3. the soil things grew from 4. tule lake blues 5. how will we get back to life again? 6. rain, after running away 7. is it possible to send promises backwards? 8. hunting the eye of his own storm 9. if only heaven would give me another ten years
