Liam Lynch est un Réalisateur, Scénariste, Monteur et Compositeur de musique originale Américain né le 5 septembre 1970
William Patrick Niederst, best known as Liam Lynch, is a musician, puppeteer, writer and director. He co-created, co-wrote, played the music for, directed, and produced MTV's Sifl and Olly Show.
Lynch also made the album Fake Songs, released in 2003, produced by his own company, 111 Productions. This album featured the song "United States of Whatever", which charted in the Top 10 in the United Kingdom, and Australia.
Lynch also directs music videos. He has worked with Queens of the Stone Age, Eagles of Death Metal, Spinnerette, and No Doubt. In 2003 he directed the UK music video for the Foo Fighters single "Times Like These", although it was rarely played in the United States.
He directed the 2006 film Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny after working with Tenacious D in 2002, when he directed the video to the song "Tribute", their most popular hit. He also directed several short films that played as part of their live show, as well as a documentary called On The Road with Tenacious D which was a featured part of their DVD collection, The Complete Masterworks. He directed Sarah Silverman's movie, Sarah Silverman: Jesus Is Magic as well as a music video for Silverman called "Give the Jew Girl Toys". He wrote the original music used in the MTV animated series Clone High and co-wrote a song in the feature film,
School of Rock. Lynch has an ongoing podcast available through his website that contains skits, videos he has created, and answering viewer mail.
A friend found a story in Rolling Stone magazine that Sir Paul McCartney was going to open a unique performing arts school, LIPA (Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts), and gave Lynch information on how to apply. Lynch, then 23, was one of 40 musicians chosen from around the world.
During this time, he created the concept of what was to become The Sifl and Olly Show. Lynch wanted to make something using the recordings he and Matt Crocco did a few years ago as a Christmas present for Matt. He originally wanted to do stop motion photography, but Lynch didn't have the money or the equipment for it. It was 3 A.M. and the only materials he could find were socks. He once said, "It could have easily been buckets." Making puppets out of his socks and borrowing a video camera from a friend, Sifl and Olly was born. Lynch sent a few tapes to MTV Europe in 1996, leaving them to become "idents," or short buffer clips played in between videos. A year later, these "idents" were half-hour shows. In 1997, he returned from Liverpool to Nashville to work on The Sifl and Olly Show pilot, briefly returning to Liverpool to finish his studies. MTV in America began airing Sifl and Olly in July 1998, but the show only lasted two seasons. A third season was released as a DVD available through the Sifl & Olly website.
The song "United States of Whatever" was featured during Season 1 in an episode of MTV's Sifl and Olly. When the Sifl and Olly Show was canceled, Lynch put the song on a sampler CD. "United States of Whatever" topped the British charts. Lynch promptly licensed the song November 18, 2002 as a single in the UK on the Global Warming label. It was released on a three-track CD single. The song was used in a commercial for Tony Hawk's Underground. Tony Hawk had made a guest appearance on the third season of Sifl & Olly.
2000s
Between the first and second seasons of the Sifl and Olly Show Liam recorded a solo album, Fake Songs. Lynch released the Fake Songs CD on EMI in the USA on April 9, 2003 (and in the UK two months later). The Fake Movies DVD that comes with the Fake Songs CD contains puppetry, computer animated shorts, skits, music videos, home movies and behind-the-scenes footage.
While working on the album Lynch directed a music video for the Foo Fighters (UK version of "Times Like These"), worked on DVDs for No Doubt, Tenacious D, and Eagles of Death Metal, Sarah Silverman, Queens of the Stone Age and finished composing music for the MTV animated series, Clone High. Lynch also co-wrote music for the Jack Black film School of Rock. He released several of his albums, "We're All-Nighters", How to Be a Satellite in 2006. He released his album Get Up on the Raft in 2008. He also has released two volumes of songs from his podcast Lynchland. Lynch collaborated on and directed Sarah Silverman's film Sarah Silverman: Jesus Is Magic and also co-wrote and produced the soundtrack. The movie he directed — and for whose album of the same name he helped write and played guitar, Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny, debuted in late 2006. In 2009, he directed a music video for the song Craigslist by "Weird Al" Yankovic.
In 2012, Lynch also directed several music video's for Tenacious D's Rize of the Fenix album.
Liam is also credited for the graphics and artwork on Them Crooked Vultures' debut self-titled release.
In 2013, Lynch directed a music video for They Might Be Giants' for their album Nanobots.
