Ryan Sinn (born 23 April 1979 in Fremont, California, USA) is the former bassist for the alternative rock band Angels & Airwaves and The Distillers, but has joined Love Equals Death, after Dominic Davi's departure. On March 4, 2008, Love Equals Death lead singer, Chon Travis posted on the band's Myspace blog that Sinn had left the band on good terms.[1]
Sinn joined The Distillers after their first album had been made. At the time he only played guitar, but the group was so desperate for a bassist that he learned to play that instrument in four days. He appeared on the group's second and third albums. The band experienced some turmoil in 2005 and Sinn announced that he had left the band on his MySpace page in August of that year.[2]
After leaving The Distillers, Sinn was recruited by former blink-182 member Tom DeLonge to join his new project Angels & Airwaves. He played bass on the bands 2006 release We Don't Need to Whisper. However in April 2007, rumors spread that Sinn had left Angels & Airwaves due to difficulties with the rest of the band. In May, these rumors were confirmed by Sinn. Soon after the announcement of the departure, Sinn posted on deathouse.com that he would be auctioning off items associated with AVA including a Tom DeLonge signature guitar that DeLonge had given him.
The reasons of his dismissal are still unknown to the fans as no further announcements have been made by the rest of the band.
Currently, Sinn is playing bass with The Innocent-a thrash metal supergroup consisting of drummer Brooks Wackerman, vocalist Brandan Schieppati (Bleeding Through) and guitarist Dave Nassie (No Use for a Name)
On October 15, 2007, Sinn posted this on his website, ryansinn.com
[3]New Band Announced:
"As grinding death metal reemerges, thrash metal makes an exciting comeback and the trendy also-rans of the last few years deservedly fall out of favor, it's time for skillful fretwork, mature song-craft and breathtaking musicianship altogether to conquer to take its rightful place once again. It is time for The Innocent.
Vocalist Brandan Schieppati (Bleeding Through), drummer Brooks Wackerman (Bad Religion, Tenacious D, ex-Suicidal Tendencies), guitar player Dave Nassie (No Use for a Name, ex-Infectious Grooves) and bass player Ryan Sinn (ex-The Distillers) have joined forces, united by their shared love of the power of heavy metal, under the banner of The Innocent and are preparing to lay waste to any preconceived notions about the unlikely combination of heroes from the divergent Ozzfest, Warped Tour and rock n' roll worlds.
Boasting an arsenal of a handful of songs crafted together in the evening hours in Orange County when their other projects have allowed a break from touring or recording here and there, The Innocent is ready to show its collective face and make its presence known as a force unto itself beyond its collective members resumes.
Get ready to hear great things from The Innocent in months to come."
