With so many bands coming and going through the city it is hard to keep up. Let us do the hard work of bringing you the information on your favorite band to one central location, Seattle Music News.

Logan Westom

Photographer,
Managing Director

Born in Portland, Logan grew up with a heavy interest in the arts, taking a hand in plenty of different hobbies before finally deciding on a career. He earned a degree in Interior Design from Washington State University and promptly moved to the bustling Northwest epicenter that is Seattle. Logan is the website founder, a certified entrepreneur in his own right, who possesses an uncanny knack for a great photograph. He decided on photography because he was a terrible musician. Logan’s favorite bands are The Killers, AFI, and Angels & Airwaves.

Stephanie Dore

Stephanie Dore

Editor,
Chief Writer

Born in Seattle, Stephanie is a writer, editor, and photographer who likes to bring the music scene to life through her work. Centuries ago, she went to art school, but now she applies her skills to tech, jewelry, and live shows. The first cassette she ever bought herself was Boyz II Men’s Cooleyhighharmony. She has Whiskeytown lyrics tattooed on her arm and an original iPod framed on her wall.

Sunita “Sunny” Martini

Photographer,
Web Administrator

Born in Omaha, Sunny moved around the world the way a military kid does. From Guam to Italy, from California to Florida, she has certainly seen plenty of things without a lens. The majority of her teenage years were spent in Florida, and she attended Florida State University, earning a degree in Graphic Design. With some nudging from an old buddy, Sunny made her way to the Pacific Northwest, where she loves to wear her black hoodie, even on our 12 hot days. Her favorite bands are Third Eye Blind, AFI, and Brand New.
