http://www.A3Network.com. Jason Lytle "I Am Lost". Jason Lytle (born March 26, 1969) is an American musician best known for his work in the indie rock group Grandaddy. He released a solo album in 2009 and is currently in the band Admiral Radley.
Lytle was born in Modesto, California with an older sister, three younger brothers, and a stepsister. His father was in the grocery business, and his mother a housewife; They divorced when Lytle was aged five. A fan of music at an early age, he played drums as a child. Skateboarding, however, captured his interest. By his late teens, Lytle was a sponsored amateur. While laid up with a career-ending ACL injury, he started to play music again, writing songs and eventually setting up a home studio. Grandaddy came together gradually, signed to V2 Records, put out albums, and toured the world.
After spending years on the road, Lytle grew tired of the rock and roll lifestyle and recorded much of the band's final album, Just Like the Fambly Cat, on his own. In December 2005, six months prior to the release of Just Like the Fambly Cat, the band decided to break up: the reasons included elusive mainstream success, despite widespread critical acclaim, and lack of money. Early in 2006, Lytle moved to Montana from Modesto, California, where he had lived his whole life.
Mid-2006 saw Lytle briefly touring the U.S. in support of The Fambly Cat, playing new arrangements of Grandaddy songs as a duo with Rusty Miller of Jackpot. The tour was brokered as part of a deal to get V2 to agree to releasing a Grandaddy DVD that Lytle has in the works.
Lytle's debut solo album, Yours Truly, the Commuter, was released on May 19, 2009 on the ANTI- label.
He appears in the music video for I Am Lost (And The Moment Cannot Last) from the album. The video was shot in Sylmar, CA on December 9, 2008 and directed by The General Assembly (directors).
On December 7, 2009, Lytle independently released an EP of seven improvised piano recordings as a "Merry X-mas" gift to fans through his website on bandcamp.com. He also announced that he was currently working on a new album.
Lytle later joined with Aaron Burtch, a former Grandaddy bandmate, and Aaron Espinoza and Ariana Murray, of the band Earlimart, to form a new band called Admiral Radley. Their debut CD, entitled I Heart California, was released in the USA on July 13, 2010, on Espinoza's The Ship label.
