She is known to bring together various forms of American music from bluegrass to jazz in to an original hybrid of jazz/funk/rock and soul. Her voice is said to be strong and her range huge.

All About Jazz said of her 2015 debut album, You Must Believe in Love, “Brianna Thomas is the complete package.
