Logan Mize

Playing polished but muscular contemporary country music with an extra portion of rock & roll guitar, Logan Mize had some success as a songwriter -- American Idol finalist Bucky Covington cut one of his songs -- prior to the 2012 release of his Big Yellow Dog debut Nobody in Nashville. Mize spent the rest of the decade playing the Nashville game, making some headway on the lower reaches of the Billboard country charts, before he relocated to his native Kansas and started writing songs about the midwest with 2021's Welcome to Prairieville. Mize was born in Clearwater, Kansas on May 7, 1985. He came from a family with roots in country music -- his great uncle Billy Mize played pedal steel with Buck Owens and wrote tunes covered by Waylon Jennings and Jerry Lee Lewis -- and Logan grew up with eclectic tastes in music, with his favorites running the gamut from Garth Brooks, Alan Jackson, and Steve Earle to Aerosmith, Tom Petty, and Nirvana. When Mize was seven years old, he started playing piano and began to focus on his singing in his early teens. After graduating from high school, he attended the University of Illinois, where he played football, but his passion for music was strong enough that he chose to quit school and move to Nashville, where he put together a band and tried to make a name for himself. In 2009, he released an independent effort simply titled Logan Mize, and the record helped land him get a publishing deal with Big Yellow Dog Music that same year. In 2012, after plenty of live work, Mize issued his second long-player, Nobody in Nashville, through Big Yellow Dog's affiliated record label; the album fared well, rising to number 49 on the country charts, and he was soon opening shows for Blake Shelton, the Band Perry, Dierks Bentley, Eric Church, LeAnn Rimes, and many more. Mize also got a boost in 2013 when he appeared in a nationally broadcast television commercial for cotton with actress Hayden Panettiere, and also appeared as himself on the television series Hart of Dixie. In 2015, Mize landed a new record deal with Arista Nashville, and released his first single for the label, "Can't Get Away from a Good Time." The track would be featured on his five-song EP Pawn Shop Guitar, released the same year. Mize returned in 2017 with the LP Come Back Road. The EP Acoustic Sessions followed in September 2019, with another EP, From the Vault, appearing in May 2019. That year, "Better Off Gone" started getting some traction on Country Radio, winding up peaking at 49 on Billboard's Country Airplay chart. Mize began releasing new songs later in 2019, starting with the single "Something Just Like This." "I Ain't Gotta Grow Up" followed quickly on its heels; the song received a remix featuring Willie Jones, who was best known as a contestant from The X Factor in 2012. Early in 2020, Mize released "Home Town." Later in the year, he issued the Donovan Woods duet "Grew Apart" and "Prettiest Girl in the World." The following year saw the arrival of the full-length Still That Kid, which celebrated Mize's rural upbringing and featured tracks penned by notable country hitmakers like Rhett Akins, Nicolle Galyon, Ashley Gorley, and Chris DeStefano. After the release of Still That Kid, Mize returned to his home state of Kansas, claiming "the pace of life here is much more conducive to creativity." Mize's revived muse informed Welcome to Prairieville, the album he released in October 2021; the record was written in collaboration with Blake Chaffin. Over the course of 2022, he released several singles -- the Grace Leer duet "Nothing with You," "Crackin' a Cold One," and "Albuquerque" -- before issuing the EP Prairie Tapes, Vol. 1. The end of the year brought Merry Christmas from Logan Mize, an EP which featured "Wrapped," a duet with Jill Martin. Mize began 2023 with the single "Bloodline."
