Poetry of raw fearless truth and the realest crip insight fully embedded in absolute lyrical lounge.

Three intense solo performances for drums (both played and screamed through), cymbal, voice, credit card, bird whistle, and guitar amplifier/leads.
Umeda is a Japanese artist who is as fascinated in setting up interesting situations to observe, as he is in creating performances.
