PRISCILLA HERNANDEZ
We are happy to anounce the return of Barcelona, Spain's evocative singer/songwriter Priscilla Hernandez to the Bad Faeries Ball. Priscilla Hernandez is a singer-songwriter and composer from the Canary Islands now living in Baercelona, Spain. Her music has been described as ethereal gothic music, weaving deep mythic lyrics with bitter and meaningful lullabies. She explores the spectral spellbinding dark side of fairytales, with melodies that weave a fantastic and unknown landscape. The light, the shade, the fairy, the ghost... A journey full of contrasts through an angelic voice that explores genres that range from new age to celtic pop.

Priscilla's debut CD, Ancient Shadows, was nominee as best new age song in Los Angeles Music Awards and was awarded Best New Age album at the IMA awards. In 2008 Priscilla was a headlining performer at Faerieworlds in the Pacific northwest as well as FaerieCon in Philadelphia.

Priscilla is also an illustrator of fairytales and comics as well as an "ethereal gothic" singer-songwriter and composer, and she is currently working in her next album, "The Underliving". Priscilla's Bad Faeries set will feature Spanish composer and pianist Hector Corcin, as well as guest appearances by members of Woodland and Trillian Green.
