Priscilla Ahn, in her twenties, is an up and coming acoustic singer/songwriter from the same musical circle as Sara Bareilles, Brandi Carlile, Cary Brothers and Joshua Radin, to name a few. Many of whom she plays alongside during the Hotel Cafe Tours in the States. But Priscilla has created her own unique image while touring the US, Europe and Asia providing crowds with intimate, warm and memorable shows.
