At the young age of 12, she learned to play the guitar and piano, while learning to write songs. She then went on to self-teach herself how to produce, record, mix and engineer records.
After years of writing and recording for others and keeping her own records under lock & key, Logan decided to start working on her own project, called “Daddy Issues,” and released her first single “Closure.” The record has been successfully received and has help to grow a fan base, including the demand from her fans and new followers to release more songs and her full EP project. Her name recognition and brand growth was not more evident than in her last concert performance with Tank and Carl Thomas, and her fans sung her single “Closure,” word for word.
In her “Daddy Issues” EP project, Logan exposes her vulnerability in her music by covering multiple emotions that her fans can relate to like depression, loneliness, pain, pride and heartbreak. While her songs are packed with strong lyrical content and messages, she blends rhythmic and catchy melodies with an infectious lower register vocal delivery that attracts listeners who eventually become fans.
She boasts an active fan base and following on TikTok and YouTube, and has a rabid community of fans called the Lo-Riders and is sure to continue to grow that fan base as she gears up for an active fall season song releases, tours, and live performances.
