Former street performer, organist, performance artist, circus performer, harpist, accordion player, tree surgeon and tricyclist performing solo.
Torrential, wrenching wordless wails, guttural screams and roars, a Haino solo vocal performance.
A prison abolitionist punk video-poetry-music mash up about our fucked-up dystopian society, RoboCop, kids toys and criminality.

Haino exceeds expectation with a 4 hour solo performance on a collection of more than forty instruments from all over the world.
