Ty Lainhart. "Music runs through my veins" as TY will tell you. At the young age of 7, TY watched and learned from his dad how to master the guitar.

TY is currently a Guitar Repair Technician at 'Replay Guitar Exchange' in Tampa.

George hails from 'Motown' in Detroit, Michigan. George is a well-known musician around the Tampa Bay area and has been in many great bands throughout his career. In addition to his musical career, George has over twenty-years experience in the performance audio and lighting field.

George was heavily inspired by the playing styles of John Entwistle (The Who) and Victor Wooten. This combination of styles gave him his own unique style and presence. Culminated from 35 years of professional playing, George has mastered just about every style of music there is. Thundering bass sounds and monster chops, George is the consummate bass player.

George has been with Borderline for 5+ years and continues to lay down that bottom end needed for Borderline's driving style.

Chris hails from Falls Chuch, Virginia but has lived in the Tampa Bay area since 1970. He started his musical journey in junior high school in the beginning band class. Once in high school, he was privileged to be in the marching band modeled after the DCi drum corp style. This introduced him to various styles of music and built up his 'chops' to the agressive demand of corp playing.

Building on this experience, he was mainly influenced by three drummers: Ringo Starr, John Bonham, and Neil Peart. Utilizing the strengths of these players, Chris modeled his own unique style of playing. Progressive rock was a mainstay of his playlist. Incorporating his style of drumming into various bands around the Tampa Bay area, he settled in with Borderline in 2016.

Curt is instrumental, no pun intended, for getting our stage lighting set-up and running. He is also integral in the sound system arrangement and overall stage management.

Curt is truly the "7th" member of the band.
