About

Whatever the song asks for

I'm Borin Doulos, a composer, multi-instrumentalist, and creative educator from the Detroit/Toledo area. I write and record across genres: odd-time grooves, cinematic themes, quiet piano and guitar pieces, and the songs that grow out of them. Piano, drums, voice, guitar, bass, synths—I'll pick up whatever the song asks for. Every piece is an exploration, and you're welcome to come along.
