Life-long “music lover and music doer,” Terry Borden (Blesson Roy) is a child of 1970’s California whose early love of AM radio and his brother’s record collection has led him to numerous career highlights that are still accumulating. These include kind words from Lou Reed, two appearances on David Letterman and 250-plus tour dates a year throughout the early 2000s as a member of slowcore pioneers Idaho and singer-songwriter Pete Yorn’s backing band Dirty Bird. Coming of age in Los Angeles during the 80's rise of punk and new wave, Borden’s long and varied career as a studio and touring musician culminates with his own dreamy pop project, Blesson Roy. Owing to Borden’s stint living and working in the UK where he was influenced by the burgeoning sonic aesthetics of sub-cultural labels such as 4AD, Creation, Factory, and Rough Trade, the music of Blesson Roy will undoubtedly please fans of all these sounds.
