Gianna “Gee” Brockriede is a NJ native from West Long Branch who has been studying music and performing since she could stand on both feet. She attended Red Bank Regional and graduated from their Visual Performing Arts Academy in 2018 with her focuses being in voice and drama. In 2022, she obtained two degrees from Coastal Carolina University in Myrtle Beach, SC in Communications and Theatre Studies with concentrations in live performance, acting, and directing. During her high school and undergraduate years, she was a member of her school’s choir, their chamber choirs, held multiple leads in varying productions such as Into the Woods, Macbeth, You’re A Good Man, Charlie Brown and Midsummer Night’s Dream. She directed a production of How I Learned to Drive in 2022 and has received nominations for both her on stage and directorial performances. She was also a mentor and aid for underclassmen through her collegiate years and taught basic piano, vocal lessons, and audition preparation.
Gianna has taken voice and lessons from all kinds of teachers and mentors across the east coast and has dipped a toe into almost every genre, holding an appreciation for all kinds of music. Her range is drawn from her participation in bands, choir, and theatre over the years, and she has even worked in songwriting and composition workshops to write and produce her own music.
Getting to pass this love of music and performing down to the next generation of artists is both an honor and a privilege, and Gianna promises to make the heart of every lesson all about your student and their goals. Each lesson is carefully crafted around each students’ strengths and needs, and the hope is to provide them with both a skill set and arsenal of techniques that will carry across all genres and styles, for all kinds of stages!!
