Patrick Shiroishi is an insanely talented, Los Angeles based multi-instrumentalist. I had the pleasure to have met him when I was living down there and was immediately blown away by Patrick and his saxophone skills, not only with playing in bands but with his own projects too. In the years since being back in The Bay Area, I’ve kept in touch with him and followed his musical journey. Patrick is Japanese-American and when COVID started and suddenly all of these Asian Americans became targets of hate, he put his voice, which is his music, to work.
