Lanusa is the solo music project of Kathryn Logan. Raised in a musical family in Nashville, her father was a folk musician and sound engineer, and her grandmother wrote musicals and played jazz standards. She grew up singing with the Nashville Children’s Choir and studied guitar through Nashville Metro Parks with blues guitarist James "Nick" Nixon.
Foundational influences range from Ani DiFranco, D’Angelo, Jonatha Brooke, Amel Larrieux, Bill Evans, Erykah Badu, and Paul Simon to her father’s work in bluegrass, folk, and rock, her grandparents’ love for big band and jazz, and her mother’s love for Joni Mitchell and Tracy Chapman. Lanusa’s songwriting draws from these diverse sounds .
In 2010, Lanusa released her Skies | Floor EP, followed by Noah Feels August Like I Feel August (2013). In 2015, she released Skeletons as Leavers, co-produced with Myles Rodenhouse at Douglass Street Records. Praised for emotionally charged compositions, Skeletons as Leavers was described by Skull and Bones Blog as “haunting, musically sophisticated, and beautiful.” The single “Sea to Seek” blends folk and jazz tones, with rhythmic guitar, percussion, and harmonies supporting sweeping, raw melodies.
Lanusa’s songs feature distinctive rhythms, emotional power, and lyrics that reward close listening. Performing live since 2003, she has played notable NYC venues like Rockwood Music Hall and Arlene’s Grocery and toured across the US.
