Brianne Bryant, known as Lady Bri, grew up in Cleveland singing along to Whitney Houston through a toy karaoke set. Houston’s music and uplifting persona made a strong impression on Bri and continues to inspire her to push her sound and find her own voice. Standing alone, defying the odds, and self-empowerment are all prevalent narratives in Lady Bri’s work. Bryant is also an acclaimed songwriter, having songs placed in many ads, shows, and movies. Bri has lent her voice to some of the world's most iconic brands, with placements for Powerade, McDonalds, L.L.Bean, and CVS, among others.
