Full review

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.

Following the release of her first EP, Priscilla has continued and developed her unique folksy sound and enchanting lyrics in this debut album with Blue Note Records; enitled 'A Good Day'. The album reflects a lot on Priscilla's own childhood growing up in Pennsylvania. The first song on the album, and a familiar song from her EP called 'Dream' reflects upon this nostalgia with lyrics such as 'I was a little girl...I had a dream that I could fly from the highest swing...long walks through the dark...'

The album continues with the somewhat poignant 'Wallflower' in which Priscilla sings about being the shy person who doesn't really fit in at parties. The whimsical harmonies continue to flow as the album progresses. I found 'Leave the Light On' to be, like 'Dream', particularly enchanting with lyrics and harmonies that will take away any stress after a long, hard day. And in my opinion 'Lullaby' will like it's title and lyrics, gently put you to a peaceful sleep. Meanwhile, with 'Astronaut' there is almost an eerie, beautiful and dreamy fun fair vibe to it.

Overall, I found 'A Good Day' an absolute pleasure to listen to. Priscilla's clever ballad of lyrics, whimsical melodies and enchanting voice may let your mind wander to wonderful places and evoke nostalgia of home and your childhood, as I found. The accomplished album certainly gives the impresssion that Priscilla Ahn is very much a musician on the path to a blossoming career.
