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. He has also been a part of numerous performances with the Memphis Symphony Orchestra. A highlight was playing guitar for the Elvis: The Wonder of You national tour, led by conductor Robin Smith in arenas and amphitheaters across the country. Logan continues to push himself in new directions, always in search of new creative heights. Always learning. Always exploring.
