Bri Bagwell at Mama Tried Deep Ellum
Fri Feb 14 2020 – 7:30 PM
Bri started her music career at 14 years of age, singing in her twin brothers band, juggling the late night gigs with early morning volleyball practice while in high school. Eschewing volleyball scholarship offers, Bri opted for a chance to live in Austin, TX and attend the University of Texas. She finally got her chance to play live there after teaching herself guitar and playing with a friend. Bri kept writing and eventually recorded an album and formed The Banned, which is a play on words from her song Banned from Santa Fe. Bri is the artist who will say a prayer with you, then have a shot of whiskey with you with equal authenticity. A fixture on the Texas Country scene, Bri has seen her audience grow and diversify as she has progressed through the musical landscape.
