I’m proud to be celebrating my 6th year as a Voting Member of the Recording Academy with this year’s awards ceremony and, while I am skipping the in-person stuff again this year, I am really excited for the big show on Sunday.

Here are some pics of me and Ruth Radelet walking the red carpet at the 2020 Grammys, just before the old world ended. ❤️

“This year we all had the opportunity to give up or move forward, and most of us probably did at least a little of both. I have been surviving the pandemic through music, fashion, art, rescue doggos, and just showing up for the communities I care about and belong to. I’m grateful to still be here and feel very clear about who and how I am trying to be in this new world. My reaction to the endless suffering happening around me and across the globe this past year was to lean all the way into gay joy, any way I could. Everything I create now is rooted in this unwavering belief that we will all come back together someday, to dance and hug and kiss and fuck and eat at restaurants and go to shows and see our families and shop in stores and travel and get the mail without worrying about dying and just have fun, like we used to. I spent so many years — decades, actually — unhappy in my own life. I just absolutely refuse the darkness now.” – Logan Lynn

Thank you to Out Magazine for the great night and for the #Out100 honor.

Thanks also to Portugal. The Man for making a gay feel special.

Today the Recording Academy / GRAMMYs opened up first-round voting for the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards and I’ve got two songs on the ballot!

Also, the live version of my song “Underground” with Glasys that Banana Stand Records released earlier this year is up for “Best American Roots Performance”.

I’m so proud that I got to be part of this amazing show this season. Thank you all for watching and downloading the songs from the soundtrack — And if you haven’t already, go stream season 4 on Netflix right now!!! 🏆

Been a long, rainy couple of weeks in Portland, Oregon — but full of opportunities to connect and make sure the people I care about know how much they mean to me.

Lots of really exciting announcements coming up soon, but here’s a little bit of what I’ve been up to with Portugal. The Man as we move toward launching PTM Foundation this year…

Portland City Commissioner Amanda Fritz, Senior Policy Advisor Cynthia Castro, Tribal Relations Director Laura John, and the Office of Government Relations have been working hand-in-hand with Communities of Indigenous Peoples and allies across the region to build a coalition of support for city-wide policy which will ensure that Land Acknowledgements take place at all City of Portland events! So awesome. Nice work, Commissioner! Thanks for hosting us last week at City Hall. We’re all super excited to support these efforts.

Later that same day, Zachary Carothers and I went to hear Tara Zhaabowekwe Houska speak about her work on the frontlines of environmental justice at the intersection of Indigenous Rights and it was nothing short of completely inspired.‬

‪We also had breakfast with Tara that morning and got to hear all about her mission and vision. So glad we got to connect while she was in town. My main takeaway is always: I have so much to learn.

The reality is, Indigenous Peoples face persistent and enduring challenges to their communities, their lands, and their basic human rights, with extremely limited support from the broad spectrum of philanthropic institutions…which is why the band has decided to launch PTM Foundation in the first place. The extreme disparity is wrong, and we’re going to do something about it.

Join special guests Portugal. The Man, Jillene Joseph from Native Wellness Institute, Multnomah County Democrats, and many other rad folks on Saturday, March 21st in Portland to help #GetOutTheNativeVote and raise crucial funds for Indigenous-led programs across the U.S.!

We’re also headed to DC this weekend for the National Congress of American Indians Awards where Portugal. The Man is being honored with the 2020 Public Sector Leadership Award!

See you soon, East Coast. 🏆

‪Proud to join the Recording Academy / GRAMMYs in celebrating the many talented people #BehindTheRecord!‬

‪Thank you to all the musicians, engineers, writers, producers, artists and performers who brought My Movie Star to life. This album would never have been possible without each of you.
