Local singer/songwriter; Logan Wilson's recently released album entitled ‘Geography' is described by Andy Gunton of Hastings Rock as "one of the best locally-produced albums I've ever heard", praising its "high level of musicianship". Geography harks back to the carefree days of summer, though in no way shies away from the darker side of life. Born in South Africa and currently living in East Sussex, Logan is actively giging up and down the country with his band comprised of Steve Hope (keys), Simon Shaw (guitar/vocals), Sacha Trochet (percussion/vocals) and Matt Novis (bass guitar/vocals) at numerous prominent venues and festivals. Logan continues to enjoy regular airplay and live sessions on BBC Radio 2 on both the Janice Long and Terry Wogan shows and is on the cusp of signing to a major label. Influences include Paul Simon & Neil Finn.
