Lion, Adam/ Evan Lipson Feat Jake Smith
That Which Is Placed Upon The Altar
Offering "a tone so pure it is almost a sine-wave" (The Wire), Adam Lion is a percussionist concerned with improvisation, composition, and performance. Based in Los Angeles, his work has been featured in The New York Times, Pitchfork Media, Artforum Magazine, and Bandcamp Daily. In 2025 Lion performed over 40 concerts in 21 states, travelling to all regions of the contiguous US. Evan Lipson has lived with the incurable disease of music since early adolescence, seeking the liminal realms in which intellect and instinct, history and myth, and creative and destructive force intersect
