Brian O'Reilly, known professionally as Bry, was born on February 16, 1988, in Dublin, Ireland. He began his music career performing under the name BriBry, initially booking tours by tweeting his intentions to perform in specific locations and waiting for an audience to gather. This unconventional approach led to sell-out tours of Australia and the UK in 2013 and 2014. In 2015, Bry released his debut studio album Bry, following a successful tour supporting Twenty One Pilots on their European leg of the Emotional Roadshow World Tour. His first EP, "Your Life Over Mine," was released in 2012, followed by additional EPs including Grow and Us. Bry has also been involved in philanthropic efforts, notably fronting the Cut Cake Not Wrists campaign to support young people dealing with self-harm from January 2013 to early 2015.
