Sam Jayne, frontman of indie rock projects Love as Laughter and Lync, has died. He was 46 years old. The news comes after it was reported earlier this week that the songwriter had gone missing. Jayne’s bandmate Zeke Howard confirmed the news. Pitchfork reports that an NYPD spokesperson said Jayne was found in his car and that a preliminary investigation saw no signs of criminality.
Upon the news, Howard shared a statement: “Our dear Sam is no longer with us but his memory and impact will endure. Please respect the privacy of the family at this time.”
