Bio
Blair Borax is a singer-songwriter, making art and music in Portland, Oregon. Born in New Jersey, Borax went to school in Vermont and then moved to the West Coast in 2014, before she knew how to play a single chord. Ten years ago, a cheap guitar fell into her lap and opened up a life-changing musical can of worms. Since then, she's become a prolific songwriter and performing artist known for her distinctive voice, captivating melodies, and poetic lyrics.
She has released three full-length records and played over 350 shows across the continental US and Canada. Borax’s third independently-released record, The Color Green (2025) is a collection of ten songs about growing up, searching for hope, falling in love, missing home, watching parents get old, and slowing down to savor all of it.

Her fourth album, ‘exist you me infinity’ (coming April 2027), is a deeply personal 12-song record, born from grief, love, and a wider well of human experience. Traversing a range of heavy topics like mental illness, suicidal ideation, anxiety, sexual violence, loss, climate change, and political turmoil, Borax gives testimony to what truly matters- love, forgiveness, taking care of each other, and remembering the miracle of being alive. A departure from her former work, ‘exist you me infinity’ explores uncharted harmonic directions, bolder composition choices, and a new palette of instrumental arrangements, while still maintaining a thematic throughline of Borax’s music: honest human songs that make you feel less alone.
