Well, friends? It’s finally almost here. The pre-order for my new record, ADIEU, just went live!
The album is available on 150 Gram Red Double Vinyl, Compact Disc Digipak, and Digital Download — and whichever pre-order package you purchase, you will receive 5 of the 15 new songs instantly.
“ADIEU” is the record I have been trying to make since 1998 when I first started making records and I am so excited for you to finally hear it. This is my heart. No filter.
Gino Mari and I love you. To celebrate, we have released a new single from the record called “Can You Get Me Off?”
Thanks to all of my favorite radio stations in Portland, Seattle, New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco for playing the hell out of this thing already the past week or so. We are coming for you LIVE this fall, darlings.
There have been several times in my life where I have wanted to not be here anymore. There have also been times when my former addiction or mental health struggles have made their way into the public sphere, which anyone who knows how to use the internet either already knows about or can find for themselves, so I won’t bore you with those details.
I have been open about my own mental and behavioral health for as long as I can remember, both in my music and in the media…mainly because there would have been no possible way for me to hide it; and making songs has always been my therapy – often the only way I am able to get the poison out.
I tried to leave this world the first time when I was 14 years old by throwing open the door of my father’s car while he was driving on the freeway and then trying to jump out of the moving vehicle at full speed. My dad held on to me and my clothing with one hand and everything he had, and somehow managed to both keep me in the car and get us to safety.
I wanted it to be over.
I wanted to leave the world.
And I still sometimes do.
The Church of Christ “therapist” I was sent to because I was depressed and locked in my room had outed me to my parents just moments before. Read the rest of this entry »

Sep 14, 2013Comments Off on LISTEN: Logan Lynn Releases Cover of “We Can’t Stop” (Miley Cyrus) – FREE DOWNLOAD
On the heels of my summer tour of the U.S. with Big Dipper and Conquistador, I have just released a cover of We Can’t Stop (by Miley Cyrus) that is going to blow your mind. Click HERE to listen and download the single free on Soundcloud or HERE to do the same on Bandcamp. The official lyric video is also streaming on YouTube HERE. It technically doesn’t come out until Tuesday (9/17) but…you know…we can’t stop.
😉
Produced by Gino Mari, who also produced my 2012 release Tramp Stamps and Birthmarks, this song features all organic instrumentation unlike anything else I’ve recorded to date. Why Miley, you ask? Well…I thought what Miley did on the VMAs was hilarious. I mean…Robin Thicke is a disgusting misogynistic pig who actively promotes rape culture, but that’s not Miley’s fault. She’s just young and awkward and having fun. I would have totally Twerked on him and everyone else in my way at her age. Going nuts and telling authority figures to go screw themselves is part of growing up. Also, where do I get one of those giant foam fingers she had for that performance? Is that a sports thing or what?!
You may notice that this cover (and my latest single, released 8/13) are a bit of a departure from the electronics I’ve become synonymous with over the course of the past 15 years. These are just a glimpse into the new direction I’m headed in sonically. I have to keep changing things up or I get bored. This round I’ve put down the dance music a little and Gino has been playing all kinds of instruments instead. It’s been turning out really warm and special so far as a result. I figured this cold, dead pop song was the perfect thing to try and bring to life. Don’t get me wrong – I actually really like Miley’s version, too…but it’s not particularly warm.
