Lynch Mob released their first album "Wicked Sensation" in 1990, which featured Logan on lead vocals. However, shortly after finishing touring, Logan was removed from the band's lineup and replaced by new singer Robert Mason. Why Logan and the band parted ways is still unknown to the public.
In the mid-90's, Logan formed the band Violets Demise with former Dio guitarist Rowan Robertson. The group recorded an album, but it was unfortunately never released. Recently the un-released Violets Demise album began circulating on the internet and has become a popular bootleg. In 2001 album was self-released under the name Logan/Robertson, titled "Revisited".
Logan took a hiatus from the music business before resurfacing in local LA clubs with his band Head Set. After moving his family to Europe, he started a new musical direction. In 2005, Logan released his first solo album "Stranger in a Foreign Land", which features a new, different musical sound for the vocalist. Logan wrote all the songs on his album as well.
Logan was one of many guest vocalists featured on Liberty N' Justice's 2006 album "Soundtrack of a Soul". Logan sings "Show Me the Way", the 7th track on the record.

Oni Logan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Tis the season to be jolly,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Don we now our gay apparel,
Fa la la, la la la, la la la.
Troll the ancient Yule tide carol,
See the blazing Yule before us,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Strike the harp and join the chorus.
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Follow me in merry measure,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
While I tell of Yule tide treasure,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Fast away the old year passes,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Hail the new, ye lads and lasses,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Sing we joyous, all together,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Heedless of the wind and weather,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
