Borns is Garrett Borns, born in 1992 and raised in Grand Haven, Michigan, a singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist who makes indie pop that shimmers like a disco ball in a beach house. He started performing young and put out a debut album, A Dream Between, before the major labels came calling.
The Candy EP in 2014, released through Geffen and Interscope, was his introduction to the wider world, and "Electric Love" was the lightning bolt: a glammed-up sugar rush of fizzing synths and soaring vocals that sounds like summer at full volume. "10,000 Emerald Pools" came from the same record, dreamier and more languid.
Dopamine, his debut studio album in 2015, was a commercial success, with "Electric Love" going platinum and "American Money" adding a slow, sultry sway. He toured as a supporting act with Charli XCX, Bleachers and Halsey and played Coachella, and his follow-up, Blue Madonna, included "God Save Our Young Blood" with Lana Del Rey. The Suddenly EP came later.
