Well, friends? January has turned into quite the thing! We still have a couple of days left in this first month of 2016, but after releasing my new video “The One” on New Year’s Eve, a bunch of seriously fun things have happened. 😉

Haven’t seen it yet? Watch it here:

I first want to thank Portland’s 101.9 KINK FM Radio (the #1 Rock Station in the U.S.) for picking up the single immediately and playing it on the radio so much since the release, as well as 99.1 Wild Planet FM Radio and KGW News “Live at 7” for having me on. I feel the hometown Portland love — and the feeling is mutual all around!

New Noise Magazine premiered the video in the States, followed by MTV’s Logo Network (where we were trending online for over 2 weeks!), Accidental Bear, Culture Brats, Oregon Music News and Hype Machine.

I was interviewed by UK Music Site The Sound of Confusion, Glide Magazine, Seattle’s OutSpoken Radio, and Austin Music Podcast “Casting For Two”!

Our song was featured on The American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) #NewMusicFriday Playlist, as well as on Propuesta de la Semana, El Podcast #97 (Mexico), Skope Magazine, Roth and Roll (Sweden), Essentially Pop Magazine, Dream Chaser, Our Daily Queer, Blooming OUT Radio, OOYUZ, Quest of Life Radio, Gay News Radio, OPB Music and (perhaps most importantly) Vortex Music Magazine’s Social Media for “Kiss A Ginger Day”. HA!

As of just now when I went to grab the embed code for this post, the video has been watched over 70,000 times. Thank you to each of you who have watched, shared, liked and commented on the video since its release 4 weeks ago. I love you all so much!

The full record, “Adieu”, is coming your way September 27th, with another new single and video before that this spring, so…stay tuned!

Thanks to Portland’s NBC station KGW-TV for featuring me and Trillium’s CEO Kim Scott this week on “Live at 7”! We chatted about music, mental health, and our “Keep Oregon Well” campaign to fight stigma!

From The Sound of Confusion: “The One + Exclusive Interview”

DJ, musician, writer, producer, TV presenter, activist, not to mention slaying a few demons along the way, Logan Lynn has packed a lot into his 36 years, and you can add to that releasing the very first single of 2016, as new track ‘The One’ became available at 00:00 on January 1st. Stylistically ‘The One’ sees a slight shift in direction for Lynn, whose past releases have been more electronic, whether it’s veering towards the dance floor or creating hook-filled alt-pop. This first track from his forthcoming new album ‘Adieu’ sees him (aided by producer Gino Mari) tackling garage inspired indie-rock without losing those catchy melodies and pop sparkle. In part a homage to his mentors The Dandy Warhols who have released his past work on their label, ‘The One’ is a fresh sounding hybrid of organic and synthetic instrumentation that stands out as one of the strongest songs he’s written thus far.

We asked Logan Lynn a few questions about the new album, his life and his music.

TSOC: You’ve covered a lot of musical styles in your career, including a dance music, electronic indie and pop, and your new single could be described as modern garage rock. Has this been a natural progression or a deliberate decision to try different genres?

Lynn: I think this has been a product of my having been so deeply influenced by artists in all different genres. Some of it has been deliberate, for sure… and some of it is just that, when I was first starting out I was a teenager who didn’t really know what he was doing, so electronic music, Read the rest of this entry »
