Priscilla Ahn had her start during her time at Tulpehocken Area High School, playing coffee houses and open mikes in the Bernville, Reading, and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania area.

Two of her songs were also featured on two episodes of Grey's Anatomy[1][2]. Dream was also featured on the soundtrack to the movie Disturbia[3]. She was also a part of the 2008 Hotel Cafe tour. [4]
