Priscilla Block is scorching up the airwaves with her major record label debut, “Just About Over You,” which is a true-to-life story about running into her ex-boyfriend at a local Nashville watering hole.
“It is so crazy how real this happened,” says Priscilla. “It was the weekend I was moving out (of my apartment), I basically got kicked out; I couldn’t afford my rent. We were like, ‘Let’s just go get a drink. This weekend has been too much. Let’s just go.’ Go to Losers, see my ex as soon as I walk in, and you know, it was just kind of one of those moments that I walked in, and I was like, ‘You know what? I’m good. Like I really am good.’ And then as the night goes on, the drinks start hitting a little bit, and I was like, ‘Dang, maybe I’m not.’ (laughs) The whole song is like a mental mind game. You’re like is it the alcohol? Do I really miss them? Am I just putting a band-aid over it? What is it? How am I actually feeling about this? You know, I had written that idea down, went back home, we talked to my mom about it and whatever, and a couple of days later, we ended up writing that song over Facetime with two of my girlfriends, just exactly how it happened.”
Written by the Raleigh, North Carolina native with Emily Kroll and Sarah Jones, the song was first released independently through the support of her dedicated fanbase who rallied together to finance the recording after hearing Priscilla play around with the song on her socials. Priscilla, astounded by the response, then saw the song shoot to the top of the iTunes all genre song chart within 12 hours.
Priscilla was recently featured in Billboard. Read the article here.

“It is so crazy how real this happened. Honestly, I had gone to the bar, I was with my sister. I was moving out of my apartment that weekend.
