Børud considers Shakin' the Ground his true debut as a solo performer as his previous release was entirely of unoriginal music.[14] The same year, he collaborated with Kåre Conradi and Ingelin Reigstad Norheim along with girls from the Jeløy Church's Children's and Youth Choirs to release Takk, gode Gud, for alle ting: 20 sanger fra Barnesalmeboka, a compilation album of 20 hymns.[15] Also in 2008, he collaborated with Ann Kristin Wenneberg, Marianne Bondevik, Hans Esben Gihle, and Voxkids to create another hymn compilation, Søndagsskolen Synger,[16] and contributed to the compilation Perfekt Sommer.[17] In 2009, he was featured along with Samuel Ljungblahd and Miriam Gardner on the Joakim Arenius and Praise Unit three-track single "The Mission Field",[18] from the album of the same name.[19] In 2011, he released Keep Movin, which peaked at no. 27 on the Norwegian charts and no. 15 on the Swedish charts.[20][21] A single was released for that album in 2011 as well, "She's Like No Other".[22] That same year, he performed live with Sante Fe and the Fat City Horns, a concert which was later released on DVD in 2013.[23] In 2012, Børud was featured on the song "Get Ready" by INC the Choir on the album Higher.[24] He also appeared in 2013 on the Lars-Erik Dahle album Step into the Water for the song "Barrytown",[25] and with his father, Arnold, on the Rune Larson song "All Shook Up" from the album Tidens Gate.[26] Later that year collaborated with Samuel Ljungblahd for a stand-alone Christmas single, "Mary's Boy Child", released on November 8,[27] and on December 23 the pair released a full Christmas album, Someday At Christmas.[28] The album charted at no. 39 in Norway and no. 13 in Sweden.[20][21] That year Børud also released a best-of compilation, The Best.[29]
His next studio release was Stepping Up, released on November 24, 2014,[30] which was accompanied by the single "Maybe".[31] On March 8, 2017, Lars-Erik Dahle, featuring Børud, released a remixed version of "Barrytown" — "Barrytown [Waveform Five Mix]" — as a single.[32] Also that year, Ljungblahd and Børud collaborated once again for the Christmas single "O Holy Night", released on November 10.[33] On January 18, 2019, Trine Rein featured Børud on her single "Where Do We Go".[34] His latest studio album, Outside the Limit, was released on September 20, 2019.[30] Three singles have been released for Outside the Limit: "Good Time", released on November 16, 2018,[35] "Fast Enough", released on February 1, 2019,[36] and "Outside the Limit", released August 28, 2019.[37] Børud also was featured as a vocalist and guitarist on the progressive death metal band Cognizance's single "Malignant Domain", released August 22, 2019.[38][39] On November 22, 2019, he appeared, in collaboration with Lewi Bergrud and Maria Solheim, on the Christmas EP Blåtoner.[40] On April 13, 2020, Børud was featured along with Kine L. Fossheim on the single and music video "Together We Stand".[41] The song was released by Gospel Explosion, a choral project led by Leif Ingvald Skaug.
