Mover & Shaker of the Day: Bria Ansara
Today’s Mover & Shaker of the Day is Key West singer-songwriter and entertainer Bria Ansara.
In a town known for great music, Bria has carved out a place all her own. For more than a decade, she has been one of the most recognizable voices on the island, bringing her signature blend of soul, jazz, blues, Motown, and pop to audiences from around the world. Whether performing an intimate ballad or getting an entire room on its feet, Bria has a gift for making every audience feel like part of the show.
But what truly makes Bria a mover and shaker is her consistency. Night after night, year after year, she has shown up to share her talent, helping create the vibrant live music culture that makes Key West such a special place. Through thousands of performances, she has become more than an entertainer—she has become part of the soundtrack of countless vacations, celebrations, friendships, and memories.
And tonight marks the end of a remarkable chapter. After more than 12 years of performing at the Bourbon Street Pub, Bria is retiring from her residency there. Tonight will be her final performance on that stage, bringing to a close one of the longest-running and most beloved residencies in Key West entertainment.
While her time at Bourbon Street Pub may be ending, her influence on the island’s music community certainly is not. Her dedication, professionalism, and passion have inspired fellow musicians and entertained generations of visitors and locals alike.
Congratulations, Bria Ansara, on an incredible run and a well-earned celebration of everything you’ve contributed to Key West. See her tonight from 8:30-?? at Bourbon St. Pub for her last show!
