On behalf of myself, George Galfo and the MYSTICS we were saddened to learn of the passing of a dear friend and a former Lead singer of the MYSTICS on Jan. 2nd, 2014 -- Jay Traynor. You will be deeply missed our friend and our Sincere Deepest Heartfelt Sympathies and Condolsences to the Traynor Family. The MYSTICS gave you your start in the industry and from there you became the Original Jay of the Americans and then a valued member of Jay Siegal's Tokens. You came a long way our friend and made us so Proud. I (George Galfo) remember you giving me the Thumbs up at the Red Rose Inn & Suites when I sang "Somewhere Over the Rainbow", which is the utmost compliment coming from the man who recorded it while with the MYSTICS.
Rest In Peace Our Friend...
