Nashville-based singer-songwriter Laura Bryna, popularly known for foot-stomping Country Rock songs like “Over Being Under You” and “Certified,” has gone back to her classic country roots with her emotional ballad, “Rise,” with genre-defying singer-songwriter Common Tribe. The moving collaboration is available now on all streaming platforms HERE.
“‘Rise’ is one of those songs that hits you right in the soul. Collaborating with Common Tribe brought a rawness and power to the track that I instantly connected with. This song is about resilience, hope, and knowing that no matter how tough things get, you’ve got the strength to rise above it. We made this one for anyone who needs that reminder—and I can’t wait for the world to hear it.” – Laura Bryna
“Rise is a call to keep pushing through the blood sweat and tears because you owe yourself the strength and courage to do so.” – Common Tribe
A defiant anthem for anyone refusing to be held down, “Rise” is. This modern take on classic country sounds evokes a familiar nostalgia in country audiences while incorporating new and exciting musical techniques. This track pays homage to classic country and the heartfelt lyrics connect to feelings of hope and resilience when the going gets tough. Driven by a raw, stripped-back sound, the song captures the weight of the world and quiet resistance it takes to rise above, refusing to break and standing taller with every step forward. “Rise” is a reminder that even through heaviness, there is beauty in standing tall.
“Rise” continues the explosive success of Laura Bryna’s already released three singles this year, from the most recent, patriotic “Blue Jean Crazy,” to the feel-good country-rock anthem “Lil’ Bit Of Jesus, Lil’ Bit Of Hank, and the bold, pop-inspired ballad “Painkiller.” The former was released during the country’s biggest Country music festival, CMA Fest in Nashville, where Laura had several high profile performances and interviews. The latter will soon be receiving a dance remix from dance music superstar Sam Feldt, known for “Show Me Love (EDX Remix),” “Post Malone” and “Way Back Home. 2024 was capped off by the release of her foot-stomping, fierce, and feisty rendition of Joan Jett & The Blackhearts’ “I Hate Myself for Loving You” and its accompanying music video, which was filmed in the famous Neon Boneyard in Las Vegas. Earlier in the year, she released her original “Over Being Under You,” which follows her previous songs, “Certified,” “Jawbreaker,” and “Body First.”
Beyond her Country Rock persona, Laura also takes on her “Miss Christmas” persona during the holidays with her hit holiday pop song, “Wishlist.” Having been born on Christmas day, Laura has always cherished the Holiday season, and she released her cheerful holiday single in 2023, which took the holiday season by blizzard. “Wishlist” consistently tops the Holiday charts, radio play, and retail radio waves. She performs the “Wishlist” and her other holiday covers at holiday events and parades around the country including The Hollywood Christmas Parade, Good Night New York, and Great Day Live in Tampa last year.
