"Lightspeed Champion is the name of the musical venture by ex-Test Icicle Devonte Hynes. Containing musical elements from a variety of genres, Lightspeed Champion is a radically different sound to Hynes' previous band. The band's name comes from a series of comic strips Hynes did as a teenager in his school math books. In early 2007, Hynes went to Omaha, Nebraska to record Lightspeed Champion's debut album with Saddle Creek producer Mike Mogis. A number of Omaha-based musicians appear on the record including Mogis himself, trumpet player and pianist Nate Walcott, The Faint's drummer Clark Baechle and guest vocalist Emmy The Great - along with moonlighting members of Cursive and Tilly And The Wall. The result of those recording sessions is the album Falling Off the Lavender Bridge which was released on January 21st, 2008."
