Logan Hanna is a Memphis-born guitarist and composer. A servant of song with a deep sensitivity to the musicians he creates with. He loves the thrill of working in different musical settings and bringing a unique voice to those worlds. Drawing from his love of various musical genres, his sound is deeply rooted in the tradition of Jazz but is blended with his love for Soul, Country, Blues, Rock n Roll, and World music. Logan has been a vital part of the Memphis music community for 15 plus years and has toured and or recorded with numerous musicians over that time, artists such as Mike Doughty, Obruni Dance Band, Mighty Souls Brass Band, and Grace Askew.

This experience has taken him around the world providing opportunities to perform and record with a wide variety of well-known musicians, producers & music legends. Gregg Allman, the Doobie Brothers, Bobby “Blue” Bland, Justin Timberlake, Jonny Lang, Stevie Wonder, Lucero, Jason Isbell & the 400 Unit, North Mississippi Allstars, Allman Brothers Band, Southern Avenue, BJ the Chicago Kid, JJ Grey & Mofro, Don Bryant & The Bo-Keys, John Nemeth, Boo Mitchell, Wayne Newton and the Coasters have all called on Edmaiston for stage and studio work.
