Bri Wiegand is a composer, sound designer, percussionist, dancer, and filmmaker who uses her wide interests to create multi-media music and soundscapes through technology and movement. Her work has been described as both “whimsical” and as “having a special edginess.”

Currently, Wiegand works as an Assistant Sample Editor for Tapspace Publications where she has been helping create their new percussion software instrument. She was also commissioned by Matchstick Percussion for their “Strike Anywhere” initiative based on her community in Philadelphia. The piece, “Foundations” utilizes rocks and plastic containers to represent the building blocks of the Philly neighborhoods from the cobblestone roads and “kindness rock” chains to the relationships with her neighbors.

In the fall of 2024, Wiegand taught the Commonwealth University Bloomsburg Campus’s Percussion Studio where she gave private lessons and directed and curated music for the percussion ensemble culminating in their fall concert.

In 2023, she composed the score for feature film Spooky Action directed by Rod Bingaman, utilizing all synthesized and percussion instruments which she performed and recorded herself. The film premiered at the North Hollywood CineFest in Los Angeles.

As a musician, Wiegand has performed in State College, Philadelphia, and around the United States with new music group Open Music and the Williamsport Orchestra, as well as a soloist.

Wiegand is an active member of the PAS Music Technology committee and presented her own created instrument dubbed the “Frankenvibe” at PASIC 2022.
