There is something to be said about packing up your belongings and pursuing that dream. Brianna Musco is doing just that by touring in various parts of the country over the next couple of weeks.
A former college soccer star at Delaware State University, the New Jersey native had to quit playing soccer due to getting five concussions in her athletic career. Brianna found a love and an unbridled passion for music as she earned a college degree and learned how to play classical guitar.

“Brianna Musco has what it takes to make it in this tough industry. When I first listened to her, the words honest and organic immediately came to mind”- Matty Douglas, Madness To Creation
Authentic, dynamic, unique. Brianna Musco embodies all of these characteristics as she composes lyrical tales on stage. As a songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, Musco uses her vast array of musical influences to craft originals that are innovative to the pop genre. At Musco’s Jan. 5 release of, “The Demo,” her onstage energy was contagious as she performed 3 acoustic based originals and a variety of crowd pleasing covers that spanned decades. Musco displayed a clear connection with the packed audience, who enthusiastically sang and bopped along throughout her entire set. Her music tells a personal story while remaining fully relatable to every person in the room. (Jessica Bell, TCNJ Journalist and fan)
