Aubrey Logan

sshhmute artist Aubrey Logan hails from the picturesque surroundings near Seattle, WA (US). Raised by her two music-educator parents, she began her artistic endeavours as a child singing in theatre and in church. Thoughtful songwriters like Billy Joel & Carole King influenced her early childhood via her singing mother and trumpet-playing father, as well as the soulful musicianship of American horn bands such as Chicago, Earth, Wind & Fire, Steely Dan, and more. Things took an intriguing turn when she picked up the trombone at the age of 12, igniting her passion for the jazz tradition. Aubrey possesses a distinct yet truly unique voice, able to take a song from practically any era or genre and really making it her own, through surprising vocal melisma, scat jazz interludes and a blissful warm tone that expands over her entire catalogue of originals to innovatively-arranged hits. Her accolades are as impressive as they are extensive, from clinching victory in the prestigious Shure Montreux Voice competition in 2009 to securing a full scholarship to Berklee College of Music, where she stands as an alumna. Notably recognised as a top trombone player by Downbeat magazine, Aubrey has graced stages globally, touring alongside renowned artists like Dave Koz and Postmodern Jukebox. For as much success as Aubrey has had in her career, she doesn't take herself too seriously. You'll catch her often making highly entertaining and humorous jabs at her own craft on stage or posts on her social media platforms parodying overly serious jazz musicians, overplayed Christmas music, or social media trends.

Aubrey attained the #1 Billboard spot for contemporary jazz with the Dave Koz & the Summer Horns album, "From A to Z", alongside the success of her own album, "Where the Sunshine is Expensive". Aubrey's musical footprint can be traced from Seattle to Boston to LA, and now Austin, TX, where she continues to captivate audiences with her extraordinary vocals and unmatched Jazz finesse.

A seasoned performer, Aubrey has toured extensively with her band across Europe and the US, performing her music to students and fans alike through engaging clinics and performances at various institutions. Her musical prowess has also led her to collaborate with orchestras nationwide, with both her original compositions and covers being brought to life by esteemed orchestras like the Seattle Symphony, Boston Pops, and Cincinnati Symphony orchestras. Looking ahead, she is also currently immersed in creating her debut big band album set to unveil in late 2024, promising yet another dimension of her artistry to be enjoyed by music enthusiasts worldwide. Exuding lively youthfulness, mingled with veteran musical maturity, Aubrey has a voice that seamlessly weaves through her songs with raw and natural elegance.
