Sam Jayne, the indie musician best known as the frontman of Love as Laughter and Lync, has died. Jayne’s Love as Laughter bandmate Zeke Howard confirmed. He was reported missing on December 12. An NYPD spokesperson told Pitchfork that Jayne was found in his car and that a preliminary investigation showed no “signs of criminality.” Sam Jayne was 46 years old.
“Our dear Sam is no longer with us but his memory and impact will endure,” Zeke Howard wrote. “Please respect the privacy of the family at this time.”
According to social media posts from friends and collaborators, Jayne was last seen on Sunday, December 6, and last heard from on Monday, December 7. A widespread effort was made on social media to have people call, text, or email any information they may have about Jayne’s location.
(Please remove this if I've done something wrong, this is my first post! I am assuming that Pitchfork is considered a MSM because it is a very well-trusted music source.)
