Cool Story

One of the coolest stories that Priscilla remembers is when she was working at a yogurt shop at a very young age when Taylor Swift drove by and saw her wearing one of her shirts prompting Taylor to pull over and say, " Hey, I love your shirt so much thanks for supporting me me." It was at that moment that she realized she didn't want to give up her dream of being a singer-songwriter-musician. When she was old enough she packed her bags and moved to Nashville and the rest is history as the story goes.
After many years of honing her skills, playing late-night gigs around town, and lots of hard work and doing lots of odd jobs to help support herself Priscilla Block began to turn. When COVID hit in 2020, she was locked down with pretty much everybody else in the country. During that time she wrote a lot of songs eventually leading to posting her music on TikTok to share with fans and soon she watched her fan base grow even bigger landing on top of the iTunes Country and All-Genre song charts. Perseverance would eventually pay off down the road Priscilla’s streaming has now topped 250 million and rising steadily.

Today, Priscilla has a record deal with a self-titled EP, followed by her first full-length album. Her signature sound of country pop and southern rock is what defines her as a new-generational artist in today's country music world.
