It’s been really touching this week since announcing my upcoming hiatus to see how many people, venues, record stores and press outlets have felt that my taking a break from the stage is newsworthy (Just Out, Willamette Week, KZME FM Radio & Oregon Music News to name a few). Makes a boy feel really loved during a rather slippery, uneasy time, so…thanks for that.
In addition to the announcement of my change of plans last week on their site which you can read HERE, OMN (Oregon Music News) picked up on my swan song today and has it featured in a story titled “Logan Lynn Releases Final Album Via YouTube“. Click HERE to redirect or keep reading below.
From Oregon Music News: (8/3/2010)

…and here’s a snippet to tide you over:
From “Local Cut”:
“Logan Lynn’s glossy electro-popping album From Pillar to Post has been on the horizon for a while, since initial excitement over signing to the Dandy Warhols’ label, Beat the World. With just over a week until it’s offered up on his website, Lynn’s sharing the new video to Write It On My Left Arm.
The vast-n-sparse setting kinda suits the more minimal, ambient pulse of this vocoded offering. We’ve also got a gas-masked man in a bee-keeper suit wandering around a post-apocalyptic landscape with a suitcase. Interpretations welcome?”

From Willamette Week’s “Local Cut” Music Blog:
“It has been about 15 months since it was announced that Logan Lynn would sign to the Dandy Warhols’ Beat the World label. A potential big move for both Lynn and the Dandies, we felt. Well, yesterday the Portland electro-pop artist released the first sneak previews over on his MySpace page (which is where these things generally happen), and at his own website, where you can listen in hi-fi. The album, From Pillar to Post, should see the light of day in a few short months.”
“The new tunes have some Postal Service steez (not a bad thing…that was a working formula and no one ever really followed up on it, you know?), and sound fittingly detailed for having gestated in the Odditorium for two years. We’re looking forward to hearing the whole enchilada. Sorry, I’m in Texas. I have Mexican food on the brain.”
