In a fortunate turn of events, Ley Lines woos recently established Portlander Adam Traschel for bass duties finally cementing their live line-up for the support of their debut album "The Somnific Era." After months of grueling try outs the unlikely gents decided to up the stakes of their open-ended tri-county search with a $20 sign on bonus: "This cheddar really shows our level of commitment to bringing in the absolute best player possible," remarked drummer Nick Krieger.
Classically trained Adam Traschel graciously accepted the fellas invitation to join the band, quipping, "I can only hope that the recently deflated U.S. dollar will regain its confidently poised August 2006 buying power allowing for the purchase of a vespa moped.

By definition we need an individual who can play a scripted set, but is talented and ambitious enough to take this project to the next phase. We are approaching a point of professionality and need a musician whose willing and capable of making music their life and travel the country.

After still-born attempts with other musicians, the shaken but undeterred trio had the good sense to turn a professional pal into a bass boon. Cameron Jones (Thingy, Physics, Pinback,Tic Code , and most recently Simpl) magnanimously accepted the task of writing and recording for the yet untitled 2007 full-length release.
