Musician Jay Reatard Dead at 29…

Posted on January 13, 2010 by DJC

Musician Jay Reatard, rest in peace baby.

Angry garage-punker Jay Lindsey, a.k.a. Jay Reatard, was found dead today in his home in Memphis, TN. Reatard apparently died in his sleep last night. No other details about Reatards passing (which yours truly has been hoping was just a mean Internet prank for the last few hours) have been released. However, a “Tweet” from Reatard just a few days ago said that he was feeling “sick”.

Jay Reatard was a very talented and innovative performer with bright future potential. He will be missed…

1/14/10 Update: According to the Memphis PD, Jay Reatard’s death is now being investigated as a homicide.
