History

Borcherdt and Taheny formed Dusted in early 2012, and released their debut album, Total Dust, on Hand Drawn Dracula on July 10, 2012.[2][4][5] The album featured low-fidelity guitar and keyboard rock music overlaid combined with Borcherdt's lyrics.[6] That year the band performed in support of the album at various clubs,[3] including at the El Macombo in Toronto as part of the NXNE festival.[7]

Six years later, in 2018, Dusted released a second album, Blackout Summer. The album features Borcherdt's vocals over electronic rock sounds of guitar, keyboard and bass.[8][9] Borcherdt's wife Anna Edwards, as well as Anna Ruddick and drummer Loel Campbell, performed on the album.[10]
