Borns from the lower peninsula of Michigan now living in Los Angeles with a dreamy blend of folk, Glam and Electro Rock. BØRNS performs “10,000 Emerald Pools” live at Hotel San Jose in Austin, Texas. Recorded March 19th, 2015. Electric Love from glam-pop newcomer Garrett Borns garnered the attention of no less authority than Taylor Swift, who called the single an instant classic.” He seemingly came out of nowhere with last fall’s catchy, delightful Candy EP, but Borns actually came from L.A. — where he lived in a treehouse. “I’m the kind of person who needs a change of scenery once my thoughts start repeating themselves,” says the Michigan-born singer. Though he’s since relocated to a more traditional abode that he calls Mewtopia (named for the random cats that come through the building’s garden), the seclusion of his nature-surrounded California home helped influence his dreamy and sweet debut.
