Exclusive Interview: Logan Crosby Talks All Things ‘23 Days In L.A’

In This Article:

I am a simple gal most of what I do revolves around watching reality tv and listening to music, so when I learned that Logan Crosby, who was on one of my favorite new reality tv shows, Claim To Fame, was putting out music I knew I'd be all in! While I expected to like the project, I didn't expect to not be able to take it off of repeat, but here we are!

I was lucky enough to get to chat with Logan all about the EP, I hope you all enjoy this conversation!

23 Days in L.A., your debut EP, is out now, what does it feel like having this body of work out in the world? What emotions come with releasing your first project? 

Oh, it feels awesome to have something that my team and myself have worked on for the past 6 months finally be available for the world to hear! It’s definitely been a journey and there were times when I was stressed and anxious. But, there were also times where I was so excited I couldn’t sit still!

From the beginning, when the EP was just an idea, to when the very last detail was finished, how long was the process of crafting this record? Was this something that you worked on at all when you were cut off from the world in the ‘Claim To Fame’ house?

Well, I guess technically I started writing ‘Run Away With You’ when I was in college, but I won’t count that. We started writing towards the project early this January! We finished writing in April, we cut the songs right after that and then filmed all the content in early June! It was about six months in total. And no, I actually didn’t write anything off the project while I was in the Claim to Fame house. I was too busy being a nervous wreck!

Despite ultimately not winning the show, you do now have this platform that you can build on, what has it been like seeing the audience that loved you on the show continue to support your endeavors? 

Yes, it’s been super cool to kind of grow everything from multiple avenues. I got my start on TikTok, then went out and bought speaker’s and amps and started playing college bars. From there I went on the show and now I’m touring and releasing music! I think Claim to Fame really let my personality shine just as much as my music and gave me the ability to get a great team, which has been such a blessing! The Claim to Fame fans are great and I’m so thankful for them!

When you look at the track list of 23 Days in L.A. is there a track that particularly sticks out as one you were really looking forward to seeing how people would take it in?

‘Run Away With You’ and ‘23 Days In L.A.!’ Those are two of my favorite songs to date and it’s been so cool to see ‘Run Away With You’ really have its own moment! Thank you Spotify, Apple Music and Amazon Music for all the love and support!

Something that I was really blown away by on the EP was your songwriting, with ‘Whiskey Smoke’ being a standout, is there a specific line that really stands out on the EP as one you're particularly proud of writing? 

I am really proud of Billy Dawson, Allizon Veltz Cruz and Ben Williams for helping me write ‘Ain’t Nothin’ Like Lovin’ You.” That’s a very sexy song, which isn’t what I usually write so them helping me with that has been a blessing and I’m super proud of that song! And definitely “We were two chairs, one umbrella, and ninety-nine sunsets” in ‘A Little Sunburnt, A Little Drunk,’ such a cool line to me!

When you look back on your time in the ‘Claim To Fame’ house what would you say is the biggest way it impacted you? Is there a specific moment that really sticks out at one of those ‘Core Memories’ from inside the house?

Oh gosh, definitely the Telephone Challenge and the last episode where I had to eat a scorpion on live TV and all the other contestants came back! That was a crazy day, but so fun!

I know you're about to go on tour with Megan Moroney, what has the preparation process been like as you're about two months out from the start of tour? 

We’re finishing up some festivals and summer shows right now and then towards the end of August we will go in and start to get the setlist ready and finish designing the merch and advancing the shows! It’s going to be an AWESOME fall!

Thank you so much for your time Logan! If you make your way to perform in the Seattle area I will definitely be there! Is there anything else you'd like to promote to my readers?

Seattle is a dream city! I’ve never been but I want go! Follow me on social media @reallogancrosby and stream my music on all platforms!

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

10 Reasons To Thank Your Best Friend

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst. You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed.

Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
