Welcome to Log Island!

Log Island — it's what Stockholm means in English, more or less. Ben Martin (that’s me) has been living there since 2010, and writing these songs there in the last few years.

Last time I was writing and performing music was as a college student in Chicago in the 1990s. A moment of introspection some 25 years later led me to try to finish and then record a few of the old songs that I had never quite managed to let go. But then more and more new songs came, and Log Island was born.

The music is somewhere between singer-songwriter indie, psychedelic rock and power pop and I hope you enjoy it.
