Cringer was an American punk rock band originally from Manoa, Hawaii, and active from 1985 to 1991. Lance Hahn and Gardner Maxam formed the group and remained its two consistent members, and later founded J Church. Cringer released a series of vinyl records and were formative in the Hawaiian punk rock community before relocating to Los Angeles and later San Francisco.

At the time of his death in 2007, songwriter Hahn was remembered for his prolific output, dedication to art and activism, and representation of Asian Americans in punk rock.[1][2]
