Get to Know Priska

 

 

Priska, born Priscilla Liang, is a Taiwanese-American singer/songwriter from Los Angeles, CA. In Middle School, she experienced being bullied by her peers and turned to music as an important escape. When she was 16 years old she discovered singer/songwriters like Rachael Yamagata, Jason Mraz, and Sara Bareilles, and was struck by their intimate, honest lyrics and elegant song structures and was inspired to begin writing her own music.

She spent a brief time in Fuzhou, China, performing in a televised singing competition, Minnan Idol, in which she placed 2nd in the US and Top 30 overall. Priska is an avid supporter of the Asian-American community in Los Angeles and has been invited to play events for a number of Asian-American clubs and organizations such as TAP, Kollaboration, Tuesday Night Project, APASA, APA, AAJA, and more. She has collaborated with a number of musicians, most notably rapper Dan AKA Dan, and is currently completing her first solo EP for release in 2017.
