Logan Nelson scores compositions that evoke thrilling textures unique to each project. He was named the Best Young International Composer at the World Soundtrack Awards in Ghent, Belgium, attending the festival with Oscar-winning director Barry Jenkins, who called him a "must-watch composer."
At the Cannes Film Festival, Logan premiered his score for Nanette Burstein's film, Elizabeth Taylor: The Lost Tapes (HBO). This orchestral score captures the essence of old Hollywood's golden age, embodying the spirit of Elizabeth Taylor. Logan's work spans a variety of docu-series, from the airy Norwegian brass in Chef's Table (Netflix) to the eerie tape loops in Mastermind: To Think Like a Killer (Hulu), and the quirky toy percussion in The Stanford Prison Experiment (NatGeo).
Logan's score for Showtime's Nothing Lasts Forever, directed by Sundance-winning director Jason Kohn, was highly praised, with the Hollywood Reporter noting it "mines the genre [of a '70s conspiracy thriller with] sometimes the spritely kick of a heist film." In narrative film, he scored Straight Up, a romantic comedy on Netflix starring Randall Park and Katie Findlay, and the horror film Family (Fifth Season), utilizing the Grammy-winning Attacca String Quartet for experimental textures.
Logan also composed the music for Seasons 2 and 3 of the Emmy-winning Apple TV+ drama, The Morning Show, in collaboration with Carter Burwell. As a collaborator with Kris Bowers, Logan wrote music for Netflix's critically acclaimed Dear White People, as well as the Oscar-winning film, Green Book. Additionally, Logan has worked at Hans Zimmer's Remote Control Productions.
His EP, Lavender Echoes, is available on 1631 Recordings and Decca Records. Logan's art collaboration with generative artist Brendan Dawes, whose work is featured at the Museum of Modern Art (MOMA), was recently auctioned at Sotheby's. Logan resides in Los Angeles, California.
