With Borges

Although Boston's Sarah Borges began as a punk rocker who leaned alt country, she has steadily deepened her mastery of a repertoire which includes eclectic covers (X, Smokey Robinson, The Lemonheads, and Tom Waits) and signature originals that mix folk, rockabilly, classic country, singer-songwriter pop songs and gritty electric guitar-led rockers—all of it animated by soulful singing and charismatic stage presence. After a burst of buzz surrounding her 2005 debut Silver City, Borges settled into touring and recording, steadily developing an under-the-radar but widely respected career that builds on the legacies of previous female roots rockers like Rosie Flores and Lucinda Williams. On Together Alone she again teams with Eric "Roscoe" Ambel who produced and played guitar on her last album, 2018's Love's Middle Name.
