ABOUT BRIAR
Briar Summers is a singer and songwriter from Huntsville Ontario. Although only 16, she has performed on many stages throughout Muskoka and beyond - solo, with a band, and in musical theatre productions. She is completing Level 9 Royal Conservatory Piano and Theory with the help of her amazing teacher, pianist/composer Sarah Spring. She is the recipient of several music and dance awards over the years, such as The Bill Waterhouse Award for the performing arts from the Town of Huntsville. She has been involved in the Muskoka Pride Festival, Huntsville Festival of the Arts, Muskoka VegFest, Sawdust City Music Festival, OperaMuskoka Festival, and Bala Cranberry Festival. She has played countless other concerts and venues as well. She is currently recording her first full-length album at Rob Currie Recording in Gravenhurst, which will be released this summer. It features the talents of Jamie Bestwick (bass), Logan Coey (drums), Miranda Mulholland (violin), Marina Tusz (cello), and Rob Currie (guitar). Briar was recently selected by Montreal songwriter Kandle to be mentored by her, through a program offered by The Snow Lake Initiative. Briar and her music have been featured on CBC Radio and in the local media as well. "It is rewarding to acknowledge exemplary youth achievement in the arts in our community. Briar, you certainly have earned this recognition."
