Adreana "Adi" Braun (born November 23, 1962) is a Canadian jazz and cabaret vocalist and composer.

Adi Braun was born in Canada and brought up in Germany.[1] Her family is musical: her parents were professional singers (her father was Victor Braun), and her brother, Russell, is also a singer.[1] She has cited Judy Garland, Barbra Streisand, and Lotte Lenya as influences.[1] After moving to Canada, Braun graduated in music from the University of Toronto, then became involved in the jazz scene in the city.[1] She co-founded Blue Rider Records in the early 2000s.[1] In English, she "sings with a slight German accent".[1]
