Adrian Borland And The Citizens

Adrian Borland used to be the songwriter, main vocalist and guitarist in legendary UK band The Sound, who split in early 1988. While his former bandmates discontinued their musical careers, Borland moved to the Netherlands in 1998 in order to found a new band, after initially going there on holiday and to meet his manager (Rob Acda). Adrian Borland and The Citizens was formed there, taking advantage of the popularity of The Sound on the continent, and the relative inexpense of venues in the Low Countries.
