Mia Borders at Ogden After Hours

/// March 30, 2017 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana, Mia Borders’ original music genuinely reflects the oft-referenced melting pot of her hometown.  Her catalogue of nine commercial releases spans from 2007’s pop-rock-influenced “the ep” to 2016’s R&B LP “Fever Dreams.”

Heralded locally and nationally as one of New Orleans’ best talents, Borders has been featured on AXS.tv’s coverage of The New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, and has performed at such renowned venues as Essence Festival, Brazil’s Bourbon Street Music Festival, House of Blues New Orleans, Tipitina’s, Santa Cruz Blues Fest, Chattanooga’s Night Fall, Voice of the Wetlands, Memphis’ Levitt Shell, Wakarusa, Long’s Park Amphitheater, 2012 Food & Wine Classic, and The Kennedy Center for Performing Arts.

Her live shows are regularly praised as “deeply funky” (USA Today) and “confident and cool” (The Times-Picayune).  Borders herself is “a chanteuse of the highest order,” with “miles of style and charisma” (AXS.com).  New Orleans’ own Offbeat Magazine applauded Borders and her “great music and great intensity.”

Ogden After Hours is a weekly entertainment series featuring Southern musicians, films and more. Each OAH includes an art activity for kids in our Education Gallery, a cash-bar and our galleries are open for viewing. OAH is free for museum members and $13.50 for guests.
