About The Record:

On Borgens new album, The General Store, he collaborates with acclaimed Boston producer/musician, Scott Riebling (Letters to Cleo, Nina Gordon, Weezer) and brings together a talented group of players led by his band and rhythm section of Erik Privert and Dave Brophy. Local heroes Duke Levine (Ellis Paul, Jonatha Brooke), Paul Schulteis (Super Honey) and Mike Castellana (Eddie Kirkland) further enrich J.E.s songs with their creatively organic playing styles.

This record represents the flair and influences of folk, rock, americana, and backbeat that Ive inherently fallen in love with since my childhood, Borgen states. Im truly inspired by the intimacy and raw edginess of song writers like Dylan, Neil Young, and more recently Jeff Tweedy, and Ive tried to reflect that passion throughout this record.

What people are saying about THE GENERAL STORE:

"the work of a budding artist who has the potential to be one of his generations best...The General Store is highly reccomended" -Joel Dunham, CDreviews.com

"one of the most promising albums of the year comes from one of the most promising musicians in the independent scene toady." -ThisIsmodern.net

"a perfect example of how an album can hook you in 10 seconds..." -Derek Severs, CDbaby.com --The General Store is being featured on CDbaby's Front page April 25-27th!!!

Itty Tiddy Bitty Bio:

J.E.Borgens musical education began as a guitar tech for the indie rock band, Dispatch. It was through the experience of touring the country that Borgen first began molding his writing style and penchant for performing. Ultimately, the event inspired and spring-boarded J.E. on a musical journey that uprooted him from Denver and led him to Boston to pursue studies at Berklee College of Music. It was during his time in Boston, playing clubs and schools around New England, where Borgen found his voice and started to draw attention to his unique style and contagious melodies.

How about some new blogs? Potential topics of interest: what artists continue to inspire you; the meaning you find/impart in your work; your favorite Smurf. ...whatever. Maybe just three paragraphs musing over how dryers are the Bermuda Triangle for socks. Your choice man, but get on it! ;-)

Hey J.E.
Thanks for posting on my wall. I just got your CD in the mail on Saturday as well, it's so good! Though I have to admit I’m a little partial to the bass player, maybe because he's my cousin and all.

Keep playing those great songs and hopefully one day the stars will line up and I’ll be able to see you live!
