One of Country music’s hottest new acts, Priscilla Block, has received her first RIAA Platinum certification for her viral hit song, “Just About Over You.” Block was presented with the Platinum plaque ahead of last night’s sold-out show at the famed Nashville Palace. Her show at Nashville Palace marked the first time a female artist has ever sold-out the venue.

 

“From the front room playing for tips, to the first female to sell out the Palace!”

“Last night was one of the wildest nights of my career so far! I can’t believe all of the love and energy from the crowd at Nashville Palace. I am blown away! Then finding out ‘Just About Over You’ had gone PLATINUM! Are you kidding me?! Since the beginning, the fans have been behind me and so encouraging – it means the world to me and I feel so blessed. Thank y’all!”

Early in the pandemic, Priscilla was struggling to make ends meet after losing her job and her apartment. Unable to get out and play in person due to Covid-19, Priscilla began experimenting on TikTok and quickly developed a rabid fanbase with songs like “Thick Thighs,” “PMS” and “Just About Over You.” Fans rallied together to independently fund Priscilla’s recording and since its release, “Just About Over You” peaked both the iTunes Country and All-Genre song charts, the song was named one of The New York Times Best Songs of 2020, and it recently reached Top 15 on country radio. Priscilla has surpassed more than 425 million digital streams and counting with tracks like “Just About Over You,” “Wish You Were the Whiskey,” “I Bet You Wanna Know,” and her current single, “My Bar,” all featured on her major label debut album, Welcome to the Block Party, out now.  

 

Originally from Raleigh, NC, Priscilla moved to Nashville to pursue music shortly after high school. In Nashville, the affable, hardworking, student of life worked multiple jobs to make ends meet, then a chance encounter with her idol – Taylor Swift – was the sign she needed to dive all the way in on her music. Priscilla is a seasoned performer sharing the stage and opening for artists including Dierks Bentley, Jon Pardi, Kelsea Ballerini, Ashley McBryde, Rodney Atkins and more.
