Aubrey Logan is an American pop/jazz singer and trombone soloist. She is a featured artist for Postmodern Jukebox.[2][5] Logan won the Audience's Choice Award and the Jury's First Place Award at the 2009 Shure-Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland,[1][6] and is an American Idol alumni, winning a golden ticket in 2009.[7] She graduated from the Berklee College of Music in 2010, on a full scholarship.[1][8]
Background
The child of music instructors,[7] Logan was a singer, dancer and actress, but as she aged out of those roles, in her middle-school years, she lost interest. At her new school, she found that her new friends had a different lunch period because they were in the band program. Eventually, Logan informed her mother of why she was not enjoying the new school and her mother pulled some strings with the school's Band director. When the Band director asked what instrument does she play? The answer was, "Nothing, but she sings and can read music." Logan was accepted, as long as she agreed not to choose the flute as her instrument. Having no interest in the flute, she chose the trombone because she enjoys music like the James Brown Band and Chicago, and she felt that she could also play pop music with the trombone.[9]
