In this episode of First Spin, Hayden sits down with Addisyn Logan, a rising singer-songwriter from Buffalo, New York. With only two songs released so far—“I Can’t Beg” and “I Hate Your Guts”—Addisyn has already built a buzz for her raw, confessional lyrics and indie-pop sound.

She opens up about her musical journey, from growing up as a competitive dancer and secretly performing Paramore songs in her living room, to rediscovering herself during the pandemic. Moving back to her childhood home, she began teaching herself ukulele and guitar, writing songs at her parents’ piano, and sharing clips on Instagram (while blocking her family from seeing them). Those quiet beginnings soon led to open mics, a full band, and eventually recording and releasing music.

Addisyn also talks about the support she’s received from her music-loving family—especially her dad, whose wide-ranging taste in everything from The Beatles to John Prine and Fleetwood Mac has shaped her own influences. She reflects on her growth in confidence as both a songwriter and collaborator, working closely with her producer and bandmate Mikey to develop her sound.

Outside of music, Addisyn shares stories about her “cool day job” working in production for the Buffalo Bills and Sabres, including the time she strummed guitar in a TikTok with Josh Allen. She also looks ahead to her upcoming EP, her new single “The Hill,” and live performances, including sets at Amy’s Place and Buffalo’s Music Is Art Festival.
