Following two electro-pop tunes, “Eat&Drink&Smoke&Shop&Fuck” and “Rich And Beautiful,” the latest unveiled track is an empowering anthem that Logan says is “a rally cry for me and anyone who has ever felt pushed aside or left out, just for being themselves. To every queer or trans person, to my BIPOC friends and family, and to all of you who feel like you don’t belong anywhere: I see you. You belong here. We can belong together.”
The video, directed by Daniel Napoli (Netflix's We The People), “is fairly autobiographical; life is weird and hard but in the end, we are all ultimately just stardust. That feels true to me, and is comforting somehow,” he explains.
Returning to his electro-pop roots after collaborations with 80’s pop star Tiffany, The Dandy Warhols and Styrofoam, New Money is Logan’s first full-length for Kill Rock Stars. Produced in collaboration with longtime co-writer Gino Mari and written at home over the course of 2020, the album tackles themes of life in the face of suffering, COVID loneliness, and addiction recovery, lampooning New Portland and gentrification, and including two tributes to his all-time musical heroes Liz Phair and Elliott Smith.
Lynn is the former host of NewNowNext Music on MTV’s Logo Network. He has been producing and releasing music for the past two decades on labels like Caroline Records, EMI Records, The Dandy Warhols’ Beat The World Records, Greyday Records, Mohr Media, Banana Stand Records, and his own label imprint, Logan Lynn Music. His music has been featured on MTV, VH1, Logo, Spike TV, the Emmy Award-winning series EastSiders on Netflix, and international advertising campaigns by CoverGirl Cosmetics, Oscar de la Renta, Nicole Miller, Volkswagen and other major brands.
Logan has received numerous awards and accolades for his activism, including the prestigious 2017 Award of Excellence from the National Council and being named to Kink FM’s ‘The Portland 50’ in 2018. In 2019, Lynn officially joined the Portugal. The Man team in the role of PTM Foundation Director to help build the band’s charitable foundation, which he launched in partnership with the band.
