In the ever-expanding world of pop music, Briana Piedra is making her mark in a uniquely exciting way. Originally from Portland, Oregon, and now based in Los Angeles, the talented singer-songwriter is starting 2023 strong with her latest single, “In My Head.” This song seamlessly blends openness and catchy beats, leaving a lasting impression that will stick with you long after the music stops.
“In My Head” captures your attention and pulls you into an emotional whirlwind where feelings run wild and reason tries to keep up. It’s pop music, but it stands out because it goes deeper emotionally. While her earlier song “Resurrect” had an excellent quality, Briana’s voice in this new track feels lighter, almost breezy, even as she sings about heavy topics. Piedra describes the song as a struggle between welcoming love and being held back by past experiences. This conflict, trying to hold on while also being scared, forms the heart of the song. It evokes that familiar feeling of excitement when you connect with someone while grappling with the fear of getting hurt.
What makes Briana’s approach refreshing is that she doesn’t dwell on the sadness, instead, she celebrates it. With lively, sparkling production that feels vibrant and energetic, the emotional weight becomes freeing. It’s the kind of song you might find yourself singing along to in the car, only to realize that it’s helping you work through your feelings along the way.
