Album

Main article: Logan Lynn

"I Killed Tomorrow Yesterday" was the follow-up to Logan Lynn's 2009 critically acclaimed, major label release "From Pillar To Post". Produced by Bryan Cecil and released on Lynn's label,[1] Logan Lynn Music, the record was the first official release by Lynn after leaving The Dandy Warhols-owned and operated Beat the World Records, a Caroline Records / EMI 3rd party label.[2] 100% of the first year of proceeds from the record went to benefit the programs and services of Q Center, which operates both the LGBTQ Community Center and the Sexual & Gender Minority Youth Resource Center (SMYRC) in Portland.[3]

The record was named Album of the Year in 2010 by QPDX, Just Out and other media outlets. Out Magazine wrote “Logan Lynn’s emo-disco-pop blend has already made him a hit with gay guys who like to hear their lives — from the highs to the lows — set to music. His ability to capture melancholy and melody is really no surprise, given that the grandmother who taught him about music also taught a similarly emotional man, Johnny Cash.” in an interview with Lynn.

Music Videos

In June 2011, Lynn’s “Quickly As We Pass” video premiered on Logo and MTV to rave reviews[4] in the press.[5] The video was directed by Jeffrey McHale and produced by Logan Lynn Music. It featured a series of animated, life-size, cardboard cutouts throughout. Because of the nudity in the video, Logo, MTV[6] and VH1[7] rejected the first three versions of the video. A black bar-edited, censored version[8] would appear on those outlets instead. In July 2011 David Byrne from Talking Heads (band) was quoted in Chicago newspaper The Windy City Times as saying "Imagine forward-thinking Imogen Heap mentoring a DIY artist with the hipster sound stemming from Brooklyn. The end product would be 'Quickly As We Pass'...the song is very catchy."[4]
