Borne is an Australian alt-rock band formed in Melbourne in 2003.
They released several EPs in their first 3 years of existence, but came to wide-spread attention only in 2007, when their single "The Guide" was featured as Single of the Week on a number of iTunes Music Stores world-wide, including the US store. iTunes took the unprecedented move of listing the free download worldwide. The band's debut onto the world digital stage was remarkable, soaring into chart high-points globally and resting at #13 in the US Billboard digital charts. The band was last-minute inclusion at the 2007 South by Southwest Festival, in Austin, Texas, an annual event where hundreds of musical acts from across the globe are showcased.
In 2006, one of the band's songs was featured during evictions on the Australian version of Big Brother.
