Biography

Baillie grew up in Manhattan and attended the same high school as his future bandmate Scott "Stza" Sturgeon. In the early 1990s, Baillie, Dunia Best, Jay Nugent and Ara Babajian formed the third wave ska band, Agent 99. In 1998, three years after the band had split up, a compilation album, Little Pieces 1993–1995, was released. Baillie then formed a short lived punk band called No Commercial Value with Stza. Baillie later joined Stza's band Choking Victim after the departure of original bassist Sascha Scatter, and went on to play in Choking Victim from 1995 to 1997.[1]

Upon the dissolution of Choking Victim, Baillie went on to join a familiar lineup in Leftöver Crack.[2] Its members include Stza and Ezra, both of whom played with Baillie in the now defunct Choking Victim.[3]

Baillie died on November 10, 2020. He was reportedly on suicide watch the night before, but the official cause of death is listed as accidental drug overdose of heroin, buprenorphine and alprazolam.[4]
