Early life
Performing began early in life for Laura, as she invited her parents to their basement for "shows" which consisted of Laura performing songs of the
Beach Boys andElvis . Singer and songwriter Laura Bryna, a Mount Airy, MD, native, first got hooked on country music while listening to country radio during long drives to aWashington, D.C. , hospital to visit her brother, who was in a six-month coma following a brain aneurysm; Bryna's visits also inspired her later tireless support of the Make a Wish Foundation.Start of career
She attended Philadelphia's University of the Arts, studying acting, singing, and dancing, and following her senior recital, Bryna was selected to appear in the cast of the Broadway-bound musical Rasputin and appeared on the subsequent cast recording. Following graduation, she moved to Nashville, enrolling in music classes at
Belmont College and landing an internship at Sony Tree Publishing, later moving to a similar position at Dreamworks Publishing, jobs that gave a keen insight into the behind-the-scenes business of music. Continuing music throughout school and college, Laura realized she'd found her calling. Her love of Blues and Country led Laura to believe that moving to Nashville was the next logical step in her career path, which proved true as she signed with Equity Records. Combining the love of these two genres of music have aided Laura in developing her own unique style and identity.Music career
Her first single, "Make a Wish," was not only a single for her upcoming album, it is also the new song for the
Make-A-Wish Foundation which is celebrating its 25th anniversary. The Make-A-Wish Foundation has been close to Laura's heart since her family became involved with the program while Laura was in high school. She has continued her participation through the Nashville chapter and hopes to stay involved with the foundation throughout her music career. She also became extremely active in the Make a Wish Foundation, and so it was fitting that her first single after she was signed toClint Black 's Equity Records label was a song she had written for the charity called "Make a Wish." Bryna's debut album, "Trying to Be Me", appeared from Equity in 2008. A second single, "Life Is Good", appeared June 2 that same year. Earlier this year Laura went on tour with Black on his Up Close and Personal Tour, but is now done and is touring millitary bases across theUS . Her third single Hometown Heroes gets sent out to radio onSeptember 22 ,2008 , the song is only on copies of Trying to Be Me released afterAugust 19 .Discography
