Bio
Mia Borders has captured the attention of both local and national audiences with her energetic blend of funk, soul, and contemporary songwriting. Offbeat Magazine’s Alex Rawls writes, “Note to self: Pay more attention to Mia Borders,” and USA today named Mia one of the 2010 New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival’s “hidden surprises.” The April 2010 release of her second full-length album, “Magnolia Blue,” earned her a nomination for Best Emerging Artist at the Big Easy Music Awards, as well as a nationally broadcast performance at N.O. Jazz Fest ‘10. She hit the road, performing at Santa Cruz Blues Festival, Mount Helena Music Fest, San Jose Jazz Fest, Taos Mountain Music Fest, Chattanooga Nightfall Series, Voodoo Fest, and Bonnaroo (VIP pre-party with Big Sam’s Funky Nation). With this and much more ahead, Mia Borders has secured her role as one of the fastest rising artists from New Orleans.
