    2026/08/29

    This episode on the Out Loud Queer Creatives Podcast, we’re joined by music artist, activist, and change maker Logan Lynn for a powerful conversation about his new documentary The Pain and The Power and its accompanying soundtrack.


    Directed by Cai Indermaur, the film is a personal portrait of Logan’s 30-year career, tracing a journey forged at the intersection of queerness, faith, addiction, trauma, and self-reinvention. In this episode, Logan talks about the new music and upcoming album, how the documentary came together, and the unique way the film treats music not as background, but as a living character in its own right.


    We also discuss Logan’s collaboration with John Gourley and Portugal. The Man, and what it means to release this project under their new LGBTQ+ imprint, PortuGAY, part of KNIK Records. Logan shares thoughtful reflections on the evolution of queer music, the importance of representation, and how art can hold space for both pain and power.


    It’s an inspiring and honest conversation about resilience, creativity, and the transformative potential of storytelling through sound. Tune in and get
