notes
Guitarist Jim Paterson and vocalist Alex from Scotland and Ireland but now based in Australia, form the core of Multi - Award winning band The BordererS.
The BordererS create original music inspired by genres as diverse as Celtic / Country / World & Rock and propelled by hard work and persistance the BordererS have performed in front of more than a million people in the last year or so.
Past professional highlights include performing at the Edinburgh Festival and three Womads both in Australia and the UK, as well as being the headline act at many major festivals around the world.
High profile artists The BordererS have supported include:The Chieftains, Tom Jones, The Fureys and Shane MacGowan.
The prestigious Adelaide Symphony Orchestra also accompanied them for two tracks on their Christmas CD.
The BordererS have released 8 CD's so far and are included on a number of compilation albums in the UK and Australia.
The BordererS have now managed to cross over to the country music market with rapturous resposes at the "Tamworth" festival and an invitation to the New Zealand Gold Guitar Awards.
An unexpected success for the band has been with the linedance community resulting in several of their songs topping the linedance music charts in North America, the UK and Europe. Currently there are 27 dances written to BordererS songs.
The BordererS have also co-written the songs for Australia's latest sensation in kids entertainment "Ticklish Allsorts", in which Alex also performs. The "Ticklish" stage show crossed the language and age barriers with a very successful tour of Russia and continues to build a strong following throughout Australasia.
The BordererS were nominated for 3 categories in the Australian Live Music Awards 2002...
1) The Best Live Album (Live @ The Gov)
2) The Folk Alliance Folk Award (Alongside the Waifs)
3) The Best Emerging Act in South Australia.

Successful mix
author: LucilleA very successful mix of folk, country, pop and even some jazz. Irresistable swing and tender ballads - all on one CD.
