Logan Metz is a musician, composer, and multi-instrumentalist based in the American Midwest. His songwriting spans several genres, from jazz and rock to folk and country, but it’s all marked by artful chord changes, a character-centric narrative style, and a wry lyrical wit rooted firmly in the Tom Waits/ Randy Newman school of piano-based storytelling.
In 2018 Metz won a Fulbright fellowship to teach at IE University in Madrid, but turned down the award in favor of re-joining his old college friends’ band, Lukas Nelson and Promise of the Real, as a multi-instrumentalist. Since then he has had the honor of playing with Neil Young, Stephen Stills, Joe Walsh, Jimmy Buffett, Eddie Vedder, Bob Weir, and in 2023 toured on piano for Willie Nelson. He is soon to release his second solo album.
