Raised in Buenos Aires, Argentina, singer-songwriter-producer Ana Schon thrives in multiplicity. She was born in 2002 into a musical family, and has found herself in relation to music her whole life. Schon has achieved wide recognition as half of the duo Borneo, with guitarist Mateo Monk, which draws upon their experiences and influences as Argentine artists. Her solo project of original songs in Spanish and English blurs genre lines.She performs as "Ana Schon & the Reunion" with a backing band that supports the electric energy and sensitivity of her songwriting. currently based in boston, MA, where she is a master's student at the MIT media lab.
