Winner of the Americana/Roots category for the 2019 Westword Music Awards, ​Americana singer-songwriter Brianna Straut conveys the human condition through empathetic storytelling.

Born and raised in Texas, Brianna sings from her roots, incorporating lamentations of lost love and soaring moments of hanging on to the good times into her bittersweet folk tunes. She’s been a member of Denver-based Americana outfits such as Bison Bone and Tomahawk Fox. More recently, Brianna has branched out on her own as a singer-songwriter with a voice that is as proud as the Rocky Mountains she now calls home.
