Hello Music in Demand community!
I wanted to just take a moment to introduce myself to each of you. My name is Logan and I am the Co-Founder, CEO and President of Music in Demand — a new division of The Gaybors Group, which we just launched this week. As the subject line of this post suggests: Music in Demand is finally here! We are in the process of adding our roster talent to the website as I type this and have launched our presence on Instagram and TikTok as of this past week.
I am really excited to bring the power of Drag in Demand together with Music in Demand, all in the name of visibility for LGBTQ+ artists, bands, DJs, and performers across the entertainment industry. This new platform will work in tandem with Drag in Demand to support the roster in a number of strategic ways, amplifying Queer and Trans voices during this time when LGBTQ+ people are being silenced broadly. We fully reject this and are prepared to meet this moment in the culture with you all. That is the spirit behind Music in Demand.
Just a little about me: I have been working in the music business since the late 90s and have decades of experience as an artist, label owner, manager, and executive. I designed and launched the .gay domain (which recently merged with GoDaddy), have just released a new album and film on Kill Rock Stars, and have been on the management team for Grammy Award-winning Alternative Rock band, Portugal.The Man, since 2017. I have activated tours with bands like boygenius, NOFX, King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, and many others, and have a background in TV and philanthropy.
My ultimate goal is always to move LGBTQ+ artists from the kids table to the big table where we belong — and I will be working with Music in Demand artists and Directors to do just that.
Stay tuned for more on all of this very soon! And thank you for being here.
Logan
