Born For Nothing

About

Born For Nothing is a DIY Midwest emo band originating from Dubuque, Iowa, a key city in the Tri-State area bordering Wisconsin and Illinois. The group emerged in the regional underground scene in late 2024, playing their debut live performance at Monks Kaffee Pub on October 26, 2024. They quickly followed this with the release of their debut EP, "Contemplating," in November 2024. Characterized by raw energy, emotive lyrics, and what has been described as "hometown intensity," the band has already shared stages with prominent genre acts like Hot Mulligan and Stars Hollow. They are frequent performers at Midwest DIY staples such as Gabe's in Iowa City and Smokestack in Dubuque, and they maintain a presence in the neighboring Wisconsin music scene.
