WHO IS LOGAN METZ?
Logan Metz is a musician, educator, and polymath based in the American midwest.
Metz moved to Los Angeles at 18, where he studied screenwriting and philosophy at Loyola Marymount University. After graduating, he worked as a music and English teacher in east LA, while touring and recording with a number of local bands.
During this time he developed a creative and academic interest in the process of adapting classic literature into music, a subject which continues to inspire Metz’s work; he wrote plays, essays, poems, soundtracks and children’s albums, and would even go on to publish musical collaborations with Nigerian playwright and Nobel laureate Wole Soyinka.
In 2015 Metz earned a master’s degree from the University of Chicago — his thesis, a full-length 1960’s rock-opera adaptation of Shakespeare’s Othello — and soon after released his first solo album, The Last Remaining Payphone in L.A.
In 2018 Metz won a Fulbright scholarship 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, Warren Haynes, Robby Krieger, John Densmore, Mike McCready, Bob Weir, and in 2023 began playing piano on tour with Willie Nelson himself.
Between touring gigs, Metz lives in Wisconsin, where he tinkers away on passion projects, including a strategy card game called Mystycs (coming soon).
