ABOUT BRIANA...
In a world where artists often wait for the right opportunity to knock, Briana Maia is a shining example of creating her own path. This Connecticut-based singer-songwriter isn’t just playing the game; she’s rewriting the rules. With an ethereal voice and a magnetic stage presence, Briana captivates audiences, drawing them into her vibrant, gaming-inspired universe filled with positivity, creativity, and empowerment.
Much like the heroes in her favorite games, Briana’s journey has been about taking control, leveling up, and building her own world. Her story began on the theatrical stage, starring in productions like The Color Purple, Dreamgirls, and Avenue Q. Armed with a BFA in Acting from the University of Connecticut, she mastered the art of storytelling—a skill that now fuels her music. But when she caught the eye of Kelly Rowland on BET’s docuseries Chasing Destiny, Briana realized it was time to take her career to the next level.
For Briana, music isn’t just about crafting songs—it’s about inspiring others to level up in their own lives. “I just want people to feel like their swaggiest, brightest selves when they sing my songs,” she says. Whether it’s through her lyrics or her gaming-inspired visuals, Briana’s work is a call to action: step into your power, embrace your journey, and don’t wait for permission to shine.
She has shared the stage with vocal powerhouses like Avery Wilson, Michael Minelli and Peter Collins, and performed at Connecticut’s premier music festival, The Capitol Groove. In addition to her solo work, Briana is a sought-after songwriter, contributing tracks like “Stranger” and “Mirrors” for the renowned Parisian dance duo Les Twins.
With her bold artistry and infectious energy, Briana Maia is not just an artist; she’s a trailblazer, inviting everyone to press start on their own adventures and reminding them that the power is always in their hands.
