FLAKE
Debut EP LAND OF THE USA Out Now
The Shoegaze Project from Blake Loggans Marries Raw Emotion with Offbeat Humor
October 24, 2025 - FLAKE, the immersive shoegaze project of multi-instrumentalist and songwriter Blake Loggans, has officially released his debut EP, LAND OF THE USA out now via Santa Anna Records. Backed by his live band, FLAKE delivers a lush, reverb-drenched sound that blends hypnotic guitar textures, ethereal vocals, and a haunting sense of atmosphere — a sonic landscape equally suited for late-night drives and dimly lit venues.

Listen and watch the new music video for "COLD".
Written and recorded over the past year, LAND OF THE USA is a deeply personal exploration of disconnection, nostalgia, and the search for belonging in modern America. Loggans weaves layers of shimmering guitars and swelling feedback into melodies that feel both cinematic and intimate, capturing the duality of beauty and unease in everyday life.
Though the songs are steeped in raw emotion, FLAKE has found a way to weave his comedic side into the project through a series of uniquely quirky social videos. His “Jankles” videos — a surreal, humor-driven series that plays off his eccentric personality—have garnered over 15 million views across Instagram and TikTok. While the comedy pulls you in, the emotional weight and power of his music reveal themselves almost instantly, creating a rare bridge between viral humor and meaningful artistry.
FLAKE is no stranger to the road, having toured extensively both as a headliner and in support of other artists. He’s joined Emery on their 20-year anniversary tour for The Question, completed multiple runs with Hawthorne Heights, and hit the road with the legendary Horse the Band for their reunion tour - building a reputation for emotionally charged live performances and a wall-of-sound energy that resonates deeply with audiences.
“This record came out of long nights and quiet mornings—the kind of spaces where you can hear the echoes of your own thoughts the loudest,” says Loggans. “It’s about the distance between the world you see and the world you feel.”
