Biography

Olympia, Washington-based emo-punks Lync comprised singer/guitarist Sam Jayne, bassist James Bertram and drummer Dave Schneider. Formed in 1992, the trio soon debuted on the Magic Pail label with the single "Pigeons"; their next effort, "Two Feet in Front," appeared on K as part of the label's International Pop Underground series. K also issued Lync's first and last full-length, These Are Not Fall Colors; soon after the album's 1994 release, the band split. (The posthumous singles retrospective Remembering the Fireballs [Part 8] followed in 1997.) Jayne resurfaced in 1996 with the solo project Love as Laughter, debuting with the album The Greks Bring Gifts; for 1997's #1 U.S.A., credited to simply L.A.L., he reunited with fellow Lync alum Schneider, rounding out the lineup with bassist Jessica Espeleta.
