[edit] Biography
Ryan Sinn (born Ryan David Sinnott 23 April 1979 in Fremont, California, USA) is the former bassist for the alternative rock band Angels and Airwaves and The Distillers, but has joined Love Equals Death, after Dominic Davi's departure. Sinn's real surname is actually Sinnott, but he dropped the -ott for added effect.
Sinn joinedThe 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.
After leaving The Distillers, Sinn was recruited by former blink-182 member Tom DeLonge to join his new project Angels and 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 and 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.
He has many projects going on, and is now the bassist for the band Love Equals Death.
