I was thrilled to be part of the 2016 PNCA Edelman Lecture “Destigmatizing Mental Illness” event at PNCA featuring Sheila Hamilton, Jennifer Pepin and yours truly in conversation with Benedict Carey of The New York Times a few weeks back!
For those who missed it, you can now watch the lecture and dialogue online here:
Check out what Sheila Hamilton had to say about my new record ADIEU. this week!
“Logan Lynn returns with ADIEU., his eighth studio album and a seismic message of resilience and recovery. Lynn’s danceable, party perfect sound succeeds in a major musical hat trick; doubling as a hopeful anthem for anyone who has suffered the one-two sucker punch of trauma compounded by self-medicating. These songs are dirty, raw and so beautifully rendered I could not stop listening.
ADIEU. fills the vacant space in music that goes beyond drugs, sex and rock and roll to what happens next, when the wounded and victimized awaken to the potential of their own lives. The mix of rock, pop and 90’s rhythms is so infectious, one might be tempted to forego the liner notes and lyrics. Don’t make that mistake.
As a mental health advocate and suicide loss survivor, I cheered this album and its anthem: Stick around and bear witness to the beating of your own heart.”
